What did the virtual interview process look like for you? For Ashland, they asked a set of 4-5 questions and listened to your responses. Was yours more open-ended? I think it's normal to feel like you didn't do great— interviews are awkward and it's ...

I received my acceptance email yesterday for Ashland! I was shocked how quickly they sent emails, as interviews were April 4th. So, for all you Portland folks, maybe you won’t have to wait too much longer! Anyone else get accepted for the Ashland ca...

CONGRATS! Good luck!

As someone who has been applying for the last couple of years and FINALLY received an invite this year, my heart goes out to you. Please hang in there and try again! - 3.8 prerequisite GPA, all courses completed - Prior bachelor's degree in Internat...

Just got an interview invite for Ashland! Has anyone else heard back? I'm guessing Portland applicants will hear something next week!

Just got my invite for Ashland! I imagine Portland will be coming out next! Good luck!

I broke down and emailed them to see if they could give me a timeline. Sounds like by the end of next week for the campuses who have heard anything yet. They also said that we should expect distance interviews. Fingers crossed for everyone!

Have you heard anything from the Portland campus yet? I can't imagine they will wait too much longer!! I'm still waiting to hear about Ashland...

Thanks for the heads up about the possibility of video interviews. That would be a bummer though, I definitely feel more confident with in-person interviews!

I applied to the Ashland campus and can't stop checking my email! This is my second time applying, so I'm REALLY hoping this is the year for me. I have a 3.85 prerequisite GPA, with all prereqs completed. 3+ years medical experience as an EMT and med...

I applied to OHSU (Ashland), as well. I'm pretty much at a point where I can't make my application a whole lot better, so I've got my fingers crossed this is FINALLY my year! I have a 3.85 prerequisite GPA, previous bachelors degree, 3+ years medica...

Anyone on the waitlist hear anything yet? The suspense is KILLING me!

I received really vague responses to alternate list questions. They don't rank alternates, so there is no way to know your "chances" of getting accepted. When I asked how to make my application better, I was given another vague response about making ...

I'm applying as as well. I applied for the July 2019 cohort, but was placed on the alternate list. Fingers crossed this time around works out!

Gahhh, the wait is KILLING me. Thanks for the info!

Based off what I've read in forums from previous cohorts, it sounds like the interview emails have historically been sent out mid-march. I can't find anything on the OHSU website to confirm that, though. Ahhh the waiting kills me!

I also applied to the 3-year program! Sounds like I'm similar situation as a lot of you. I have a previous bachelors degree (Latin American Studies), with a 2.8 GPA (which has been the death of my applications at other schools) and a 3.8 pre-requisit...

@keighlyanne Thanks for the response! I think you've confirmed my suspicion that my undergrad GPA is probably what got it my way— wish I could go back and slap some sense into my 20 year old self! Fingers crossed the waitlist works out for me! Congr...

For those of you who got invited for the interview, would you be comfortable sharing your stats (GPA's, work/volunteer experience, etc)? I want to try to amp up my application for the next application cycle, but I'm not sure what areas to focus on. T...

I'm also on the waitlist. I called to get some specifics and they said they couldn't give me any information about the waitlist. Sounds like they don't do any sort of ranking system... I think I'll end up denying my spot on the alternate list, becaus...

I also got an email saying I'm an alternate. Little bummed, but honestly the October start works better for me anyways. They didn't say what number on the waitlist I am, so I'm going to call and see if they can give me a better idea of my chances. Co...

I've had a hard time finding information on this topic, as well. My gut tells me— given how short the essay was and how vague the prompt was— that it probably doesn't hold nearly as much weight as the other parts of the application.

Thank you both for your advice, I really appreciate it! I will look into those areas (if I get accepted). How has the nursing school application process been for you all? I've applied to 3 schools, all of which denied me for my undergrad GPA (2.8). I...

Are you from Colorado? What are your thoughts on good towns/areas to live in near the school? I loved Boulder (for access to the mountains) but don't think I would want to make the commute into Denver everyday... February can't come soon enough!!

I'm from Seattle (although I've lived all over). I lived in Boulder last year and fell in love with Colorado, so I'd be VERY excited to move back!
