Hi, does anyone know if York's 2nd entry program has minimum cut-off marks for prerequisites? I have a B+ cGPA and B+ sessional GPA but I have one really terrible mark in my prerequisites, it was a D+... :(

from what i remember is that york doesn't look at pre-req marks individually, just cGPA and last 30 credits

How is living in York apartments? - I am thinking about living in either Atkinson or Passy?

Anyone with experiences with these apartments?

Does anyone know how york weighs the cumulative gpa vs. the last year's gpa? my last year is significantly higher than my cumulative which is 6.0 york scale.

Also, would anyone happen to know if york just looks at the converted york scale gpa? my original 4.3 scale gpa is in the B- range but my york gpa is a B somehow.

Or perhaps I converted it wrong? I converted each credit into the york value and summed them all up and divided by the number of credits.

if anyone has any insights i would really appreciate it!!^^

They look at the transcript your school sends them. They don't convert your GPA.

Based on what I've seen over the years I don't think York really has a pattern of weighing cGPA vs GPA.

Ahh~ So they don't rank people based on GPA? I presume it would be difficult to compare students from different GPA types without converting it all into one type.

They do rank applicants based on GPA. I only said they don't seem to weigh sessional GPA over cumulative GPA or vice versa. Both are important.

ahh~ then they would convert my 4.3 scale gpa into the york scale no? i should stop worrying and let things happen haha thanks for your help!

Hi guys! For those admitted to York, there is a fb group for your class made by the 2nd year students! It's York 2nd Entry Nursing Class of 2017. We didn't see one already made... Feel free to join! I also recommend those at York join the groups Nursing at YorkU/NSAY and YU Student Nurse Mentorship 2014-2015. Congrats on your acceptance!! :)
