$4.75/hr for call. 1.5x if called in, minimum of 3 hours pay. Portland, OR

Well, I have 22 years as a Chief Software Architect and CEO at my previous company before I became a nurse. I've been interested in informatics now for 4 years and cannot get approval to even be an EPIC super user. I've all but given up on the prospe...

If I were you I would still be thinking I'm in. Did you get a request for references email?

I'd say then that you're probably gold.

No phone call, just a canned email saying "we think you're all great, buuuuut...."

I was interviewing at Good Sam, O.R. and had done my entire senior practicum in the O.R. and apparently it still didn't holder muster. I'm expecting the "formal" call tomorrow of denial.

I was told this morning, to my dismay, that those of us (me included) who did NOT receive an email asking for references shows that we are out of the race.

Do they notify you either way, or do they only notify you if you get a job and if not then it's just radio silence. The paperwork said that they will notify us the week of the 14th and I haven't heard a thing by phone or email. Do I assume if Friday ...

Air, that's the one I did and I submitted the certificate of completion to ADA and it was accepted and considered in compliance. My course was called "Bloodborne Pathogen Training for the OHSU Research Laboratory"

Air, that class didn't show up right away on the front page. Choose "Course Catalog" and you should be able to see the course in there. Select it and you can then begin working through it.

The Bloodborne Pathogen Training is handled at Big Brain now (they changed it). It was available as of Sept. 1 and needs to be done anytime. I did it on the 1st and took just a few hours. Log in and do it right away (it's no big deal though). I'm loo...

Hi Airbender, I guess I'll be seeing you at OHSU as well starting at the orientation on the 15th.

I just received word from a friend of mine who was #3 on the alternate list at MHCC who received his acceptance into the program just a day or two ago.

It is an interesting observation that I can confirm in my experience too. Most of my science classes were at Cascade and the maturity of those students were typically very high. People were serious about their classes and the learning process. But of...

I just got word from a friend of mine, she received acceptance into PCC as well BUT she was also accepted at Linfield and she is going with the latter, so there is another opening available for PCC.

Well, I am ecstatic to say that today's mail contained a large envelope from OHSU which held a letter stating that I have been accepted into OHSUs BSN program! After jumping around the house for 5 minutes I am ready to buy drinks for everyone!

Got my acceptance letter today from PCC, so they are mailing them this week. I have already confirmed my spot at OHSU so that's one more opening at PCC for those of you who are on the list :) Best of luck to everyone waiting on PCC!

Ditto, sent it out Monday... am really looking forward to meet all of my fellow cohorts.

Heh, I think we've all collapsed from exhaustion and elation of getting in, yes.

I was rejected from CCC, I didn't get an interview at all. My all-inclusive GPA was 4.0 and I do not have a previous degree. I also do not have any health care experience except for care provided to my mom and support for my wife during breast cancer...

Hi Katinthehat, thanks... I honestly can't say if there was anything specifically that helped me get in, other than the fresh baked apple pie that I dropped off to the nursing admissions staff Heh, really, I'm not sure. I had a 4.0 on everything goi...

Congratulations Perkinje (love your nic BTW), I'll be joining you too at OHSU this fall :)

Thanks Kell, I can't describe how excited I am looking forward to the challenge, and for the priviledge of being a part of the amazing culture at OHSU.

When they say they took only 24 cohorts, are they saying that TOTAL nursing student acceptance was 24 students out of all the applicants? I can't imagine. Clarification anyone?

I finished microbiology last term at Cascade and I have to say it was one of my favorite classes. The lab was fascinating and subject matter just really fascinated me. I had a great professor there as well. Perhaps we should arrange a meet-and-greet ...
