    NurseToBe3 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    The wait for MHCC is killing me. I ended up applying there and PCC and since I didn't get into PCC I'm even more nervous than I was before. It's already been two months, but I have a feeling it will...

    MHCC said they will send them out the 2nd week of April. Also, Clark is good, but you wont be consided until you have all the classes done. I was planning to apply there, but found out right before...

    NurseToBe3 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I didn't get an invite to PCC. I had 56 points and I knew it would be a long shot. I have higher points at MHCC so I'm hopeful for getting in

    I finally caved and talked to PCC and MHCC about when the letters would be coming. They both said the second week of April. MHCC said to expect it around the 15th. I'm so ready to get my letter! Just...

    NurseToBe3 replied to Alma 3323's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm so sorry if I passed on bad info! It's been a year since I talked to anyone, but I had been told that by three different people at MHCC (one was the gal that did admissions for the nursing...

  9. OHSU from OCNE cc anyone doing this?

    NurseToBe3 replied to Alma 3323's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Sorry! Let me correct that. You can take your NCLEX, but then you have to apply and be accepted to OHSU to complete your BSN. You are only automatically in if you continue straight through. Good...

    NurseToBe3 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I haven't heard from MHCC or PCC yet. I know PCC's interviews are in 3 1/2 weeks... MHCC had a lot of power issues and full closures recently and I heard they may be delayed in mailing out letters....

  11. OHSU from OCNE cc anyone doing this?

    NurseToBe3 replied to Alma 3323's topic in Oregon Nursing

    If you choose to continue to OHSU for your BSN you will go straight through without getting your lisence untill you are done. You will need to decide by the end of your first year if you are going to...

  13. Encouragement needed please!

    NurseToBe3 replied to cainca's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I just finished my pre-recs and applied to a few nursing program and I have definitely heard horror stories about nursing school too. I don't think it will be easy by any means, but I try to keep in...

  14. The Wait is Killing Me!

    NurseToBe3 replied to princsheather's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I guess my only plan B is to retake the couple classes I got B's in to boost my GPA. Although that means waiting another year.... I don't like plan B's, so I'm really banking on plan

  15. The Wait is Killing Me!

    NurseToBe3 replied to princsheather's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you might be. I don't know other peoples situation, but I have three kids and have worked my tail off for almost three years at school. I just got all my applications turned in and I don't...

  16. Overwhelmed and Underencouraged

    NurseToBe3 replied to savnlivzPRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can do whatever you set your mind to. Don't settle for the LPN program if it's not what you really want. I have three kids, a job, a mortgage payment and an unemployed husband who is also a full...

  17. slacking

    NurseToBe3 replied to JonB04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I kind of hit a wall at that point too. It seems like it takes you forever to even be able to apply for a program. Just try studying for a few min frequently. And make sure you have some time that you...

    NurseToBe3 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I applied to MHCC and PCC. I have 59 points at MHCC and I think 55 at PCC. I know last year MHCC went through their entire alternate list. I have a friend that moved on to the interview phase (and was...

  21. Ohsu - Ocne/bsn

    NurseToBe3 replied to NicoleInHisWill's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I don't think you need all A's, but the higher your GPA, the better. I know someone who got into Linfield last year with a 3.4. Also, I talked to the head of admissions for the nursing program and...

    NurseToBe3 replied to peppapig123's topic in General Nursing

    Your story sounds so similar to mine! I had my son when I was 16. I knew I wanted to do something medical related, but I put school off. I started back to school to get my LPN and then after looking...
