BCIT August 2013 Applicants

World Canada CA Programs

Published

Hello future nurses,

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!

Anyone else defer to August?

Slowly going crazy with the wait...

Next week couldn't come faster!!!

Hey guys :) I'm new to the thread but I've been keeping myself posted with the comments. Do any of you know if your references were contacted at all?

P.S- I can't wait for Friday to come! The wait is killing me!

I just finished LIBS 7002 last month and LIBS 7001 last December, and have a lot of my courses done from SFU.

@ Emenvd: I highly doubt my references were contacted 'cause they would have told me. What did you apply with?

I have a feeling this is a very competitive intake. What did you apply with careubc?

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!
