Langara January 2018

Hey Guys,

Just wondering if anyone has thought about applying for the Jan 2018 intake yet? I'm finishing up my second A&P credit, as well as Stats, and currently am sitting at a 3.5 GPA with the 2 English and 1st A&P prereqs. Worst case, with the two final classes, it will drop down to between 3.4-3.3. I do have a Bachelor's in Psych and English, but my GPA from that was far less than stellar, so I'm hoping they don't look into those grades at all.

I'm panicking a bit though, as I don't have many options aside from Langara. I didn't plan on nursing at all up until like last year (hooray for useless Arts Degrees), so I don't have volunteer hours or any of the high school pre-reqs like Chem and Math. Also, I can't afford to wait any longer to get this going.

Does anyone know the GPA cutoff for the last few intakes? I keep reading that nothing less than 3.6 will get in, and if by some miracle I ace Stats and A&P II, I'll barely hit that at 3.67.

I hope that the presence of a degree will help but this high GPA cutoff has me really nervous.

Any and all answers are appreciated :)

did you retake any classes? did you take all your classes at Langara?

I just got accepted off the waitlist with a 3.33__ (apparently they calculate to the 4th decimal place). Best of luck to those still on it, have hope! And to my future school mates, see you guys next year :)

Hey!

No, I did not take all my classes at Langara. I took only the english classes at Langara. I did my two bios and statistics at Vancouver Community College. Yes, I retook english 1, bio 1 and stats.

Hi! Would anyone who recently got accepted off the waitlist be able to share their GPA? I have a nervous friend who wants to get an idea of where he is on the waitlist. Much appreciated! Thanks :)

Hello Scylent,

My GPA is 3.27 on the prerequisite courses and I am still on the waitlist if that helps at all. I believe I saw earlier in this feed that individuals have been accepted from the waitlist with a GPA of 3.33.

Hi everyone,

I got accepted for the January 2018 intake, and I am wondering if others, who have gone through the program/are going to be starting next month work during the program.

I was thinking of working one day a week but am wondering if this is doable based on the course load.

Thanks! Look forward to meeting all of you in a few weeks.

Hey!

I'm not sure if you got your class schedule yet, but those that got accepted from the start have already registered for courses. Just from the look of the class schedule and from anecdotes, it shouldn't be too difficult to work a couple of hours a week. We only have classes 4 days of the week, so that's gives you plenty of time to work, study, and maybe even catch up with friends.

Be sure to join the Langara 2018 January Nursing group on Facebook (it's under the name Langara Nursing Jan 2018 Intake on FB). :)
