    futureRN07 replied to ashley_michelle's topic in Ob/Gyn

    futureRN07 replied to chioma829's topic in General Nursing

    futureRN07 replied to Butterfly3001's topic in General Nursing

    I got my prereqs at a CC and I'm attending a fairly expensive BSN program. When I'm finished, I anticipate owing about $45,000 in loans. I try not to think about it too much because there isn't any...

    futureRN07 replied to RN and Mommy's topic in General Students

  14. Clackamas interview-any advice?

    futureRN07 replied to spazmom's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I wish I could give you a little insight but I never had to go through the interview process. I would just be yourself and let them know how much you really want to be a nurse and why. Good luck,...

  15. OHSU or U of P?

    futureRN07 replied to rambo8's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I've had the same reservations about taking the Providence Scholarship as you. There is no gaurentee what city you're going to be placed in and you do have to pay taxes on the scholarship which is...

  16. OHSU acceptance

    futureRN07 replied to edcampbe's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm not sure what the GPA cutoff is but I think that they look at more than just GPA which is nice because mine wasn't the highest. I'm not sure what all they look at when they determine who they're...

  17. OHSU acceptance

    futureRN07 replied to edcampbe's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I currently have between a 3.5 and 3.6 which is why I think I didn't get accepted to UofP And Walla Walla because they strictly choose applicants based on their GPA. I've heard that OHSU looks for a...

    futureRN07 replied to edcampbe's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I got my acceptance letter today as well! I'm so excited, happy, relieved... I applied to all four BSN programs in Portland and got rejected from Walla Walla and I haven't heard from UofP so I'm...

    futureRN07 posted a topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm very frustrated right now! I got a rejection letter from the school that I thought I had the best shot at getting in. I applied to all four BSN programs in Portland but I've pretty much lost all...

  20. admissions notification

    futureRN07 posted a topic in Oregon Nursing

    I was wondering if anyone knew when most of the BSN programs in the portland area (OHSU, Linfield, WWC, UofP) start notifying applicants of their admissions status. I know its still pretty early but...

  21. Ohsu

    futureRN07 replied to twarlik's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Parking is definitely an issue, basically there is no parking. I've heard there there is about 10,000 employees for around 1,000 parking spaces. Could be slight exageration but you get the point. I...

  23. Providence Hospitals

    futureRN07 replied to michellemybelle's topic in Oregon Nursing

    futureRN07 replied to futureRN07's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I just talked to a lady at WWC a few days ago and she said that my application looked good and I was towards the top of the list. I currently have somewhere between a 3.5-3.6 so I hope that will be...

  25. admissions notification

    futureRN07 replied to futureRN07's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I heard that the lowest GPA accepted last year for transfer students at UofP was a 3.7. Ouch! It just seems insane that it is that difficult to get accepted to nursing school these days. I applied...
