BCIT Jan 2013 Applicants

World Canada CA Programs

Published

Just wanted to get something started as I will be applying for this intake. Let's get this thread going. Fill me in on who you are and why you are applying bcit's nursing program.

I was told that BCIT is the most recognized institution of all nursing schools in BC. There clinical hours which I like and it's a 3 year program. It is also the most competitive, therefore the brightest, smartest, and well rounded individuals will be there. I want to be associated with a competitive environment, makes me work harder and we can learn from each other.

I am currently at kwantlen completing my pre reqs. I have completed my 1st year english and 1st year psych. I will be taking libs 7001 and 7002, 200 level psych course and 2 other bio courses.

My last name starts with C and i haven't heard anything yet. Now i'm really really nervous. :S

chemis3, weren't you shortlisted for August?

Yes, i was actually waitlisted for August but no seat came up so i had to reapply for the january intake.

Oh, what are your credentials if you dont mind my asking?

Also, if you were already wait listed then I'm sure you'll get in this time!

I'm supposed to be in my 4th year at UBC right now studying chemistry but my heart isn't really in it anymore so i'm taking a semester off to focus on my nursing application. I have finished 6 credits of English, 6 credits of introductory psych, and 6 credits of 3rd year level psych that should count for the extra liberal studies that BCIT is looking for. I'm also currently doing libs 7001 and 7002 online. The only thing that worries me is that being waitlisted for the last intake doesn't really account for much since everyone has to start fresh every time they apply. And there's probably a different pool of applicants this time. Still crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.

Does anyone know what time we might hear tomorrow from the nursing department, lol? And also, is it just me or am I the only one who keeps logging on to mybcit to check my application status? I'm going crazy:nailbiting: Please help us god of all nurses.

I've logged in a million times as well! So YOU are NOT the only one. I'm soo anxious, but it seems like they like to send out "silent notifications" late in the afternoon/early evenings

I have logged in billion times too !!! LOL

Yay!!!! Provisional Acceptance :)Finally I can relax !!!!Thank you all For keeping this post alive. Thanks to this post, I survived this long and torturesome waiting period.Congrats to those got accepted! We will be meeting each other shortly!For those who didnt get in, don't give up!!!!! Never! This post actually provides a lot of helpful tips. So pls do take advantage of it. Work/volunteers experience are As important as Grade/credits. In my case, the main reason I am being accepted is because of my work experience and I have two good reference letters.Hope this will help you guys for next try:)
