@futurenurse347, from my desktop I could see your past posts, and it looks like you were offered a position on June 7th last year. Yes, I'm nosy! ? You must be very busy with nursing school already! This year seems to be quite different. I will be sure to try and update if I get offered a position, but I'm sure it will have to wait until December or January for the MHCC Winter term.... if I'm lucky. I will continue to remain hopeful but am planning on reapplying in November. The good news is I can get some work experience in, and extra time for work experience certainly can't be a bad thing, even if it's an extra year of it. I can save up more money for tuition. Ah, yes, my glass is half full. I'm excited about this entire journey! I'm passionate and ready, it just may take more time. To paraphrase a famous Doctor (haha), Oh, the places I'll go! As long as there are brains in my head and feet in my shoes, I'll steer myself any direction I choose. Congrats to all those accepted students and to all those still trying to get into nursing school. It's been a difficult journey, but I have honestly loved the challenge. I have proven myself to be more capable than I ever imagined. Keep working and trying! We've got this! I'm cheering us all on. Cheesy, I know, but true. ?

Not yet. This year is quite different with the change in the points system, so I have really no idea what to expect. Being in limbo is a little frustrating, but hopefully we'll all know sooner than later!

I'm #18 on MHCC's alternate list and haven't heard anything yet. I am hopeful, but would love to have a concrete answer. Good luck to all on these alternate lists!

I've applied to OHSU, CCC, and MHCC. I have no expectations of getting into any school this year as I have zero work experience and the point system now heavily minimizes GPA. I plan on taking the CNA course and getting my work experience for next year if I don't get in, though! I want to be a pediatric oncologist nurse, and I'm prepared to do what I need to in order to get there. I have absolutely loved taking all my prerequisites! It has been hard, but a breath of fresh air for me as a mother of three kids. Good luck to all of you! :)
