BCIT January/April 2019 Intake Discussion

World Canada CA Programs

Published

Hey everyone, I know the BCIT January 2019 admission deadline is still a ways to go but I just wanted to know how many people are planning to apply, and also exchange some advice and questions with each other.

First off, I'd like to show you what I am applying with:

Highschool reqs

Precalc 12 - 99

CHEM 11 - 86

UNI reqs (UBC)

ENG112 - 74 (B)

PSYC101 - 72 (B)

CPSC - 86 (A)

STAT - 82 (A-)

A&P1 - TBD

A&P2 - TBD

I'm taking A&P in the Summer

experiences

- senior home (occupational therapy) volunteer

- first aid volunteer

- pharmacy assistant volunteer

Here are my questions:

Does BCIT determine your GPA based on your own university's grading scale? Or their own? And also, I'm not too sure about how to calculate GPA, since there are so many different scales online. Can anyone provide an accurate estimate of my GPA?

Does number of hours you've volunteered matter? Or do they consider it by months? Because I don't see a box where you input how many hours in the form.

How strong does my application look so far, and any advice?

Me too! Congrats to you guys! Now for the questionnaire :S

Got shortlisted,

Though, I wonder how many people are in the shortlist.

How is everyone preparing for the non-cognitive questionnaire?

They give us 2 hours to complete 4 questions, so I am assume there's quite a bit of time?

Good luck to everyone else!

I'm wondering that too.. has anyone emailed admissions asking about the number of applicants, number of short-listed and how many of those will be accepted? I'm not sure when they're done sending out the emails though.. I think last January the deadline was October 10th?

I haven't gotten an email either way and I'm freaking out!!!!

Also, it seems like they added an extra 30mins to the questionnaire! I think it was 90minutes before and some applicants just barely finished in time, so 2hours seems relieving

Maybe it's going by last name! My last name starts with D if that helps?

Shortlisted! So some people get immediately in I assume??

I believe those people applied before or they were waitlisted from the previous intake.

Has anyone heard about their application for the April intake yet?
