I am so excited to be starting nursing at BCIT in August!
For future applicants: To have a strong application make sure you have work experience, volunteer experience (preferably healthcare), as well as liberal arts courses - my Psych 241 at SFU transferred over as a libs course and I will find out if any other courses of mine transfer over once I send them an updated transcript.
I am going to be going in with a completed BSc in Kinesiology and Psychology, but a full degree is not necessary, just at least 60 credits to be competitive!
The August intake is typically more competitive than the January intake. It's 'easier' to get into the January intake simply because not as many people apply for that one. The January intake had approximately 550 applicants compared to the ~ 700 students who applied for August. When BCIT is narrowing down the applications, I was told that their standards are considerably higher because there are so many to go through.
Hopefully everyone here will hear back from BCIT soon!
