    i personally have notified all schools one way or another, but i know of some people who are holding out. so stay

  2. Alternates to MHCC

    ca336 replied to nursingstudent1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Most of the programs ask wait listed people not to call, I think the best bet is to ask people you know are on the wait list if they have

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Thanks for this! Did you transfer last fall? I heard a lot of it is online - I will be transferring from MHCC not CCC but I heard that for the community college students who transfer for their BSN at...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Yes!! I heard from them on Monday, although I was pretty high on the list but they are indeed moving through. As a reminder to everyone else please notify your schools if you know whether you intend...

  5. Alternates to MHCC

    ca336 replied to nursingstudent1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    If things went according to plan MHCC should have accepted 64 students, and I believe the top 40 of the remainders would be alternates. Make sure you reply to your alternate letter, when I did they...

    It made me smile! Hope you didn't think I was bothered by it, I was trying to defend

    I do think the ugly comment was intended with humor but I will say MHCC's program for one does not take place on the Gresham campus, rather in a newer building off Burnside. And I'm fully aware that...

    Okay, this is probably my tenth post today - sorry! But I just got my CCC letter - as expected, I've been placed on the alternate list, however I was under the impression they were giving wait list...

    Haa! Sylvania is mildly ugly I suppose, however MY problems with it are the at times horrendous parking, going to that side of town in general, and sorry if this sounds harsh but the students! The...

    You obviously worked hard and earned it if you made it in! The process has only become more competitive by the years so you should be proud :) I too am hoping for a summer of working at my new job and...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Interesting, thanks for that. CCC's interview process was the most brutal for me, the staff seemed nice enough but during the interview itself it seemed very intimidating! Lots of blank stares while...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I too am not a fan of Sylvania! As of now it's looking like I have my choice between PCC and MHCC, leaning toward MHCC, and still haven't heard from CCC although I highly, highly suspect I will be at...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hope I'm not butting in but curious why some of you have ruled out MHCC? Is it the strike issues or something else? I have several friends who go or went there and have great things to say, and just...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I understand it's a difficult situation but look at it this way - at least you are going through this while you can still change your mind! Follow your gut and do what feels right for you. It is a...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Has anyone who interviewed at CCC not received a letter yet? I live in Portland and my initial interview invite letter arrived the day after it was mailed. It is now Thursday, letters apparently have...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    It is my understanding the community college programs here are very well respected and known to be rigorous and really prepare you. It's also rumored that if you do your RN (ie do your full three...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I know this post wasn't to me but thank you for the feedback! I too have taken pre-req's at PCC as well as worked at the college for years, and the thought of turning them down kills me! However I...

    ca336 replied to Ginnym1981's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I definitely hope to hear some testimony from each of PCC, CCC and MHCC! Gotta check my mail when I get home from work today but so far it looks like I'm in for MHCC and not sure what I'll do if I end...

  20. Anyone know if iPhone is required for MHCC or other area schools?

    ca336 posted a topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hopefully posting this in the right forum - Any current students or friends of current students know what the story is with Portland area programs (MHCC in particular) requiring either an iPhone or...

  21. Anyone know if iPhone is required for MHCC or other area schools?

    ca336 replied to ca336's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I totally think it's weird too! But my friend is a current student and says that's what was required so we'll see what happens this year. I am number 4 on the list, very excited about that because I...

    I'm new here but just wanted to let the MHCC alternates know that if you reply to the original alternate notification email, you will be given an actual alternate number. If I remember correctly there...
