UBC Nursing question help?


Hey, I am currently at my last year of high school and i am planning on going to nursing. I read in the UBC vancouver nursing program taht it is not provided until the third year of university. So what would i do during my first two years, if i want to only major in nursing?

Would i take the courses that applied sciences students take in their first two years, since nursing is part of the applied science faculty? But it wouldnt make sense, because the courses provided there would only have engineering ones.

Default Re: UBC Nursing question help?
Yon can basically take whatever courses you want provided you take the 2 prereq courses (ENGL 112 and BIOL 153) to apply for nursing school in third year. For me, I was working towards a science degree when I got accepted into UBC's nursing school.

If you want to start nursing right out of high school, there are many other universities and colleges in BC that offer a 4 year BScN degree instead of UBC Vancouver 's 2 year program. For example, the Okanagan campus of UBC offers a 4 year BScN program.
