UBC Nursing - Sep. 2012

Hello Everyone!

I am considering applying to UBC Nursing for the September 2012 intake... but I'm not quite sure if I'm eligible to apply...

My primary concern is my post-secondary credits... everyone seems to have already completed a Bachelor's before applying? As of now, I have 40+ credits... by the end of June 2010 I'll have 50+ credits (which is the deadline for all transcripts), but they're a combination of first-year science, calculus and language courses with only a couple of second year o-chem... would that be ok?

I am currently a Langara student, but I have studied at SFU before until my relocation.

I've also read on the website that the average age of applicants were 21-47 (please don't quote me on this, I can't remember the exact range)... and I'm now 18 (will soon turn 19 though), but I have the requirements it's just that I'm unsure if it's alright that my 50+ credits are mostly first-year...

My GPA now is 3.3 and hoping to boost it up after this semester...

I volunteer regularly at a senior home and am a certified lifeguard and swimming instructor, worked part-time at Timmys until relocation and now have a part-time job at a local grocery store... I just hope age isn't that big of a deal because I know what I want and I'm working for it...

Should I apply at all...

(Very Worried. HELP Please!!!)

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

No ma'am. Nothing on my end. I will join the uninformed group. =P

Haven't gotten anything either so far.. anyone know the last day they're sending out invitations?

nothing yet either!! aaah i have huuuge butterflies!

congrats to those who have interviews thus far!!!

Boy they really know how to play with our emotions. Technically there is no last day, but based on their previous patterns they'll send a GREAT of majority invitations through Monday or Tuesday. And unless you receive your rejection notice they could send you an invitation up until the day before the interviews (space permitting). I wish I knew how many applications were submitted this year. I'm praying for the best for everyone! I know we have all worked so hard for this and have a lot of high hopes.

I haven't heard yet... Can I confirm that the interview invitations are sent by e-mail? Or is it a phone call?

Good luck everybody!

Hello there again,

News from the registrar's office--looks like the person in charge of invitations was not able to make it into work yesterday or today so the rest of the invites will be distributed next week!

soandroid - thanks for the update. That is a huge relief to hear, as I have been on a cleaning rampage trying to keep sane. I don't understand one thing though, if the person in charge of invite was unavailable yesterday and invites are being delayed until next week, how come some people still got invites yesterday?

I guess I have no way of knowing...

I'm just going to try to enjoy the rest of this beautiful day but it's going to be hard waiting until Monday....
