  1. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx posted a topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hi everyone! I am so excited that application season for 2015 is finally here. I am new to this board, but read several threads last year and learned a lot in preparation for my own applications. It...

  2. Providence Scholars for University of Portland

    mwpdx posted a topic in Oregon Nursing

    I haven't seen anyone talking about the Providence Scholars program on this board, but thought I would ask if anyone else interviewed for the program last week. I am on pins and needles waiting to...

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Thats great, congratulations! I was accepted as well! For me this was my dream nursing school option, so it is an easy decision. I can see where you are coming from, though. OHSU is such a highly...

  7. University of Portland Spring 2016

    mwpdx replied to ppenguin's topic in School, College Programs

    I was accepted for Spring 2016 as well - extremely excited as UP is my first choice program by far. I think if you call the admissions office they can tell you where you stand in the wait list. Good...

  8. OHSU Fall 2015 BSN

    mwpdx replied to MotoMonkey's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I was invited to interview, but declined because I have already decided to attend UP. The email I replied to said they would give another applicant my interview spot, so hopefully this gives someone...

  9. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I took it at Multnomah university years back. I think I remember someone saying that PSU offers a class that works for that requirement? Not sure. I am really looking forward to next January! Can you...

  10. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I did apply for it - not sure how much of a chance I have but it sure would be amazing. The cost is a little bit overwhelming for sure, but I feel like it will be worth it to attend this program. I am...

  11. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Hurray! That is great, congrats. I was worried it was a rejection letter by how thin the envelope was. I am guessing they wait on the financial aid bit until they select the Providence Scholars- did...

    I can't believe it - I just got my acceptance letter to university of Portland!!! Wow. I don't know if I have ever experienced excitement quite like this. Anyone else get a letter

  14. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Yes, that is my main concern as well. I know UP looks at the cumulative, but they also state that they consider the student more holistically than other programs - essays, experience, references, etc....

  15. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    That's great! The admissions coordinator told me they will know who has been selected by the end of February, but the letters are mailed the first week of March. So we should definitely know within...

  18. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I did get several "we received your application" emails, but nothing confirmed re: the transcripts. I actually went in to talk to the admissions coordinator to confirm everything was received a few...

  19. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    mwpdx replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Well a 3.77 sounds pretty competitive to me! I am in the same situation - I would be excited to be accepted anywhere, but 3 more years in school is definitely not

  20. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    mwpdx replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I haven't heard anything yet - though I don't have a lot of hope for the accelerated program at this point. Once nursing CAS calculated my GPA it was lower than I thought, only a 3.25. At the...

  21. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    I know, I am already having a hard time being patient, haha. Only 3 weeks or so till we hear from University of Portland, though. Did either of you apply there? I can't remember when PCC invites...

  22. OHSU Fall 2015 BSN

    mwpdx replied to MotoMonkey's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Interesting...I really thought that it meant 350 words per essay question. I limited mine to 350 total. I feel like if they meant 350 per type of adversity it would have been more clear about that....

  23. OHSU Fall 2015 BSN

    mwpdx replied to MotoMonkey's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Did everyone else get the email from OHSU to complete the additional supplemental application materials on OHSU's website? I thought it might be an extra essay requirement and was surprised to see it...

  24. Applicants to Portland area Nursing Programs for 2015

    mwpdx replied to mwpdx's topic in Oregon Nursing

    That's great, I've heard that "A's" in the anatomy series is one of the best ways to get in. I retook the first term for an A as well. I can't believe your application has been in for months already!...

  25. OHSU's Accelerated BSN 2015 cohort

    mwpdx replied to lmmccauley's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Phew, application submitted! That is a great feeling. I certainly agree with everyone that Nursing CAS / OHSU instructions were a lot to wade through, but I think I got it all. Now only 3 months to...
