    Got my email yesterday afternoon too! YAY!! March 6, 1pm. CONGRATS to all! One step

  2. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Yeah!! The email I got said, "If you are selected for an interview, you will be contacted via email around mid-February. Candidates not selected for an interview will not be contacted."

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Thanks for posting! It seems like they're calling the ABSN --> Masters applicants first. You're the second or third person on the ABSN --> Masters track who's said they've already heard back....

  4. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm also super nervous and anxious! It's kinda scary that if you're rejected, they just don't contact you at all. I'll definitely update if I get a phone call. Good

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    PS - good luck with OHSU and Linfield!! Hope you get admitted to at least one of them!

  6. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Thanks for the info @MrBuckeye! I did a bunch of research over the weekend and came to about the same conclusions as you've offered. Looks like I'll be trying for private loans. Unfortunately, I...

  7. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Thanks! I hope so. I just don't have much experience to bring to the table, and I don't feel like there's much aside from my grades that makes me stand out. That's what worries

  8. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Yeah...mine was a little lower than I expected too. I think it calculated out to 3.77. I started out feeling like I had a good chance, but I'm pretty anxious about it. I'll accept any of the 4...

  9. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    ajw414 replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I've applied to 4 different programs (MHCC, CCC, PCC, and OHSU's AccBacc program). I can't wait to hear back about interviews! I hope I get in to at least one program. I'm a returning student... in...

  10. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hey everybody! Has anyone heard from OHSU yet about an interview for the AccBacc program? I'm so nervous! The email said that we should hear something by mid to late February, unless you didn't get...

  11. How to get an RN job in Oregon

    ajw414 replied to oregon_val's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Look into externships and jobs for new grads in Oregon. I know for a fact that Kaiser has programs like this. Providence and Legacy might as well. I know you're not technically a new grad with zero...

  12. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Yes - it seems like it's not enough!! I agree with you. I only uploaded my supplemental application questions, course descriptions, and prerequisite course

  13. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    mwpdx, Thanks for the info! At this point, that would probably mean I'd be applying to start January 2016...right? Ideally, I'd like to start school either summer or fall

  14. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hey Immccauley - I don't have much to put on that page either except for ONE of the short essays, which of course I can't write more than 2 measly lines. Ugh. I'm still fiddling with adobe. We'll...

  15. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hey Katgreen, I've gotten about as far as what you're saying. I've tried cutting and pasting, and just typing it in. I definitely need more than 2 lines for my response though!! I emailed the...

  16. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I'm with you! 3 more years of school is tooo looooong. I'm also applying to CCC, PCC, and MHCC. OHSU is the only "big" school I'm applying to. Does UP have an accelerated BSN

  17. Portland Nursing Programs and Volunteer

    ajw414 replied to xkgbx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hey xkgbx - I would suggest looking into being a Medication Assistant at an assisted living facility. There are some in your area that you could probably start working at, without prior medical...

  18. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    ajw414 replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hi all! You definitely don't have to fill out the sections that are not required. There's a little key at the top of the Nursing CAS page that points out which colors mean what. I did fill out a...

  19. OHSU ABSN 2015 applicants

    ajw414 replied to captaintuber's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey! Sorry this is a few months later... I'm also applying to the ABSN program at OHSU for the 2015 cohort. I have all my pre-reqs done, so I'm pretty happy about that, but I'm still nervous about...
