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?
Hey @orangecat02! Hopefully we can ask admissions after the 31st once they've sent out all the emails and things are more settled down. What did you apply with?
It is my first time applying, I thought I wouldn't even make it to the shortlisted applicants but I'm quite happy I made it to the shortlist for the questionnaire and waitlist for January intake.
Just a random question but did anyone get accepted (or knows someone) that has a last name of say J through P? It seems those that have been accepted have a last name of either A-G or R-Z... but no last names in the middle... hmmmm
