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?
It is great to see so many people with such great credentials intending to get into the nursing program. I wanted to get you guys's reviews as to what are my chances getting into the program.

You application looks good imo, just make sure your post secondary courses transfers over for the prerequisites!
I have redone the prerequisites courses, the post secondary degree is for the extra credits. Also it was evaluated by ICES@ BCIT, and they said it is equivalent to a degree done here.
Also, I am taking LIBS 7002 this January, wont be able to finish it before april, but is it worth it to mention ion the application?

Then your application is fine! And as for LIBS, you don't need to mention it because they will have access to the classes you are taking at bcit so they will know. Good luck on your application!
I do know someone who got excepted into the Jan intake, but postponed to start until April...Has anyone from the "top 15" been given a spot yet? I wonder if they are waiting to see how many people reserve their seat for April, then fill the spaces after?? The waiting is so hard!!!

Hmm, yeah maybe. I thought the deadline to defer to April was mid-November so I'm surprised that no one has heard yet from the top 15. But knowing at least one person has dropped their seat for January is amazing news for whoever is #1 on the waitlist!

So since the deadline for September 2019 intake is end of February, we would have to withdraw from the April waitlist to apply for September?
