Niska, Thank you for the words of encouragement! I have most of my vaccinations done with and I have my CPR done with but have to renew it in a month or so. I'll be prepared. Just hope it pays off...

Ok, that's good to know. I'm guessing they won't be calling in anymore alternates until after the deadline for all the paperwork... August 31st is far away... Again congratulations!!! I wish you the best of luck this fall, you will do amazing!!!

Congratulations emmyers!!! This is very exciting news! It also give me some hope. Did they contact you by phone or email?

I have been contemplating applying out of state. If I don't get a call from the school I am currently waitlisted, I will apply to both in and out of state nursing programs. Will this upcoming year be the first year you are applying?

Not really. They basically said that they found more qualified candidates for the program. I heard rumors that they were schools that were easier to get into, guess they were lies. I was feeling confident about it because I am a straight A student, but was shot down There is always next year I suppose....

I applied to Rogue Community College, Clatsop Community College, and Oregon Coast Community College. Not really sure why I didn't apply to more in the Portland area

Wow! That takes guts! You must have a lot faith in MHCC. I know I wouldn't be brave enough to make that decision! I applied to 3 other schools. I got rejected to them It is my first year applying to nursing school, so I'm happy with the alternate position-even though it is at the very bottom! I honestly didn't think I would even get an alternate position, I had so many people telling me I didn't have a shot just because it is my first attempt. I guess it's just a long waiting game now.

Congratz cakkysue63 I wish you the best of luck!!! Emmyers did you apply to any other schools or is MHCC it?

That is soooo encouraging to hear!!! It gives me a ray of hope! Hopefully you should be getting a call/email soon!

Has anyone heard anything back about how the list is moving, or if it is moving?

Hey guys! I am also an alternate for MHCC. I'm waaay down on the list though and not really expecting to get in this year, but ya can't help but hope. It is my first year applying to nursing schools so I wasn't really expecting much to begin with. I'm sure you both will get in soon! Congratz to you two and let me know when you get your notifications! Hope it's soon!
