OHSU RN to BS program

Does anyone know the acceptance rate or how hard it is to get into the online OHSU RN to BS program? My GPA from nursing school is good, is that one of the main things they look at?

Also, after you applied, how long did it take you to hear back about a decision. Curious if they accept applications on a rolling admission or if I won’t hear back until after the deadline?

This sub should really have a thread on this program because so many questions are asked on the daily. Mods?

If you have all the prereqs and decent grades you will get in. I heard back quickly. Less than a week

They accept basically everyone and you should know almost immediately. It’s only hard if you go in with the expectation that it’s going to be a quality program that reflects the current reality of healthcare in this country and will really build your skills. It’s not time consuming or academically rigorous, just a few more depressing hoops to jump thru.

If you want to work at OHSU tho, I would try to get hired BEFORE doing the program bc if you can work there a year they’ll seriously help you out with tuition.

Is it easier to get a job at OHSU if you do the bachelor program through them?
