BCIT January/April 2019 Intake Discussion

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?

Did anyone that applied for April intake hear anything yet?

I got accepted as well! havent got the email but my application status changed. So maybe we'll get the emails today?

Awww yay! Congratulations :) What does your last name start with?

Has anyone talked to admissions about whether or not all 64 seats have been sent out? I'm really hoping they're sending more later today..

Sucks that there are less seats this intake

I just sent an email asking if all acceptance letters were sent out. Fingers crossed*

I just got a reply from them saying all applicants will find out by the end of October. Pretty vague. Lol

Scared to hear the answer tbh!

so far the people who stated they got accepted had last names starting with A and C. Hopefully it's because they are doing it alphabetically and haven't gotten to us yet

Also, I read in a previous April intake that people don't hear about their status until early-mid Feb. I believe someone did get accepted in Jan from the Jan intake waitlist though

... and it's from people who applied for the January intake.
