I would consider retaking your A&P classes for a few reasons: better understanding of the material and most nursing schools will NOT accept students with lower than a (B) in those classes. Also I dont believe that recieving a C in those courses means that you wont do well in other science based courses, the first A&P class I took I barely passed- then after retaking the class I got an A. I have also recieved nothing but A's (for the most part) in almost all my other sciences and thats without retaking them (: hope this helps! And Good LUCK!!!

hi everyone Im also starting in the fall :)!

I just got my letter today and I didn't get it but best of luck to those still waiting! And congrats to those who recieved it :)!!

Nope nothing here ): I wonder if they are going to send an email first , like they did with the interview??? I cant wait to find out either way, my nerves are going crazy.... I no longer have finger nails lol

Thanks for the update ashni :) did she happen to say if they have made the final picks yet?

also, is anyone starting in fall??

Well it def. makes me feel a little better to know there is others in the same boat, i just wish i knew how many so i could have a more rounded feel of the odds lol

Im glad someone started this post... The wait is killing me as well I havent heard anything and Im REALLY hoping we find out sooner than later!!! Also, has anyone (who is a transfer) done any volunteer/paid work for providence? And or has a family member that works for them? I know that its weighted more in favor of those that do or have, I unfortunately do not have any of the above and its making me nervous:uhoh3: Well good luck to all and keep me posted:)

how did it go for everyone who interviewed today????? I hope all goes well!!!!

Anyone else starting in Fall 2010 for University of Portland???

Sakara- I dont think thats how they are dividing the students i say that only because I am a transfer, and still have a couple of classes im finishing in the spring, so im in the same boat as you as far as that goes. To be honest i think its random. but i have no idea but if you do end up starting in the fall i hope to see you (:

Sakara- yes i am a transfer and congrats on your acceptance! are you a transfer as well??

Got my letter i start in Fall 2010 (: !!!!! And congrats to everyone else who i will be seeing this fall!!!!

Jinnerz- did you also recieve an invite to the providence interview? And sorry about UP

As far as the taxes go its only around 7500 you end up paying in total over three years, (from what ive heard), when your co-worker mentioned she was paying 700ish in taxes bi weekly did she say that was the total or what was just towards the scholarship. If you take into account her own takes and add two hundred per check so a total of 400 for the month i believe you will get a more accurate estimation... could be wrong
