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 :)

Does anyone know when they start notifying people? I know that it closes May 31st, and then degree holders are notified first, but I'm not sure of any dates.

From past threads about January intakes at Langara, they seem to send them out at the start of/mid July.

Applying with a 3.2 GPA. Hopefully Langara opens more spots since they have a whole floor for nurses in the new T building.

Hi. I am applying with a 3.22 however just waiting to get the results back for an online course. The last Jan intake had accepted someone with a gpa as low as 3.07. Im not sure what the cutoff was for the last fall intake as my friend knows someone who got accepted right away with a 3.2 however people were being taken off the waitlist at 3.6 and 3.3.

I'm applying with a 3.33 GPA, this is my second time applying and I'm extremely nervous. September 2017's cut off was around 3.6 - 3.5, I assume January is lower because not many applicants apply for the winter semester according to an advisor :S

Hey Glen thank you for sharing. I believe after the waitlist offers were sent out the last person on the thread who got accepted was around a 3.45. Good luck!

I'm applying with a 3.0 :/ Praying for a miracle haha

Hi everyone! I am applying with a 2.99 fingers crossed haha

I have applied with a 3.6 GPA!!!!

I'll pray for all of you. If those high GPAs tend to discourage you, just remember that I have been waiting to get into a nursing program for three years! Yes, some of you may undergo the same long, lonely path, but I consider this a test of how much you really want to have that RN next to your name. Don't lose spirit!

Now that application deadline is pretty much here, does anybody know when we'll be notified of our acceptance/rejection/waitlist?

I was told we would hear more back in June!

Hi everyone, I am applying with a 3.58 GPA! Fingers crossed as this is my second time applying!
