   Did you ever hear back from OHSU?

   Sorry in advance for this being long! To clarify, I was accepted into Linfield and but did not apply to Concordia. I did get A LOT of very helpful info from Concordia because I called and asked a ton of questions. Since felt like I had nothing to los...

   I haven't spoken to students who have attended Concordia, but as far as their NCLEX pass rates go, they actually have a 100% for their ABSN. Linfield doesn't get the same breakdown of accelerated vs non-accelerated, but has historically had a lower p...

   Has anyone heard from Financial aid? While I am not enrolled I did receive admission into Linfields ABSN and I am wondering if OHSU offers any scholarships or what their total costs end up being.

   Yeah, that is tricky. Hoping you will have enough time to make a decision and get things in order. Once I get my award letter, I am happy to share what that looks like. This is the type of information I have been looking for from past years that alwa...

   I am awaiting the award letter anxiously as well. Linfield is very expensive and depending on what that looks like it may still end up making or breaking my decision. I also am hoping to be able to get enough of a transfer scholarship that it will br...

   I got in too! I will be moving up from Eugene, and am so excited to meet everyone. I haven't officially gone in and confirmed, but I plan on being there and cannot wait.

   It sounds like you gave yourself a lot of options, I hope one of them works out! I only applied to OHSU ABSN and Linfield ABSN, & found out a few weeks ago that OHSU was a no, so I am a little nervous for Linfield.

    Bhosk, hoping it works out for you. I know that when I spoke with Chris Mast, who works with Mindy, he said that for the Summer start they do get a good amount of people of the waitlist (as a lot of people who get accepted also apply to OHSU & Co...

    Congratulations! I checked my mail yesterday hoping to see a letter, but nothing yet. Hopeful to have some good news when I get home this evening, but I live in Eugene and it may even be until tomorrow till I know.

    The message boards help me know that I am not alone in my struggle or worries. We all fear rejection and inevitably it will happen to some of us for some programs (I didn't hear back from OHSU ABSN, sounds like they already sent out interview invitat...

    Sorry to hear that! It sounds like you have academically excelled so do not let this one decision get you down. I didn't get an invitation either, and now the waiting for Linfield's ABSN begins for me. Did you apply to any other programs?

    YSO_nurseinthemaking replied to YSO_nurseinthemaking's topic in School Programs

    That is good to know, I have a 3.8 Prereq GPA for their calculation, and volunteer experience, but it is not medical. Hoping they do send out letters by mid-march and that I am not on a waitlist so I can start working on moving up.

    Thanks for your response! Same here, crossing fingers and hoping I can get started this summer/fall. I don't think I made the OHSU cut since I have not received the email invitation for the interviews. I think I have a much better shot at Linfield si...
