I have read and understand the admission criteria for the Practical Nursing (LPN) program at Mt. Hood Community College. I understand it is my responsibility to meet all program and application criteria. I verify that all statements on this application are complete and true, and I understand that falsification of any information may lead to disqualification or dismissal from the program. I understand I must have at least a 2.0 GPA in all of the required, supporting, and in program coursework. I understand if accepted to the LPN program, I am required to complete: BI122 or BI233 (completion of anatomy and physiology series) and PSY201 (if I have not already completed PSY237) with a C grade or better while still meeting the 2.0 GPA requirement by the end of Winter. I understand if I am accepted into the program, I will be expected to demonstrate the MHCC LPN program academic and essential functions with or without reasonable accommodations based on disability and approval from the Disability Services Office. I understand that clinical facilities may require a criminal history check be completed while the student is enrolled in the LPN program. I understand that if I am accepted into the program, for the purposes of public safety and health, if I have or develop any type of psychological, medical, drug or alcohol problem that impairs my ability to provide safe client care, or if I have an arrest or conviction history that would disqualify me from patient care in a clinical facility or licensure by the Oregon State Board of Nursing (OSBN), the LPN faculty/selection committee may consult with legal counsel and/or the OSBN and reject or dismiss me from the program. Upon application for licensure, applicants will be subject to a criminal background check performed by the Oregon State Board of Nursing (OSBN). Certain crimes may disqualify an applicant from licensure. Any individual who supplies false or incomplete information to the Board regarding the individual's criminal conviction record will be denied licensure. Specific questions regarding these issues should be directed to the OSBN at SW Upper Boones Ferry Road, Portland, OR 97224, (971) , or oregon.gov/osbn. I understand the college uses a management learning system called Blackboard which is an integral part of all LPN courses and that accepted students must have access to a computer with software that includes Microsoft Word 2007 and Power Point. Internet access will be required on a daily basis. I understand that a mandatory orientation will be held for admitted and alternate students on Thursday, March 3,, 10:00 am 5:00 pm, no exceptions. My attendance at the mandatory orientation is required, and I will attend this mandatory orientation or the next eligible alternate will be given my assigned place in the program. I understand that, as an accepted student I will submit my required immunizations, CPR card, and all other required documents by March 8,. If I am an alternate student, I will have these documents ready to submit by this date should a position become available. I understand that, as an accepted or alternate student, I must provide a current Healthcare Provider CPR card approved by the American Heart Association. This program will accept only Healthcare Provider CPR cards from the American Heart Association, and I will obtain the appropriate card type. The CPR course must have been completed (and submitted) by March 8, (no exceptions) and must be valid for the duration of the program. I understand that if I have applied to the LPN or other restricted entry health profession programs at MHCC in the same admission year, and I accept a position in the LPN program, my application to other restricted entry health profession programs will not be considered for that year.
