BCIT Nursing Jan 2023 Intake

[JayCeee]

Hey all!

Just opening a forum for the students who've applied for BCIT's Jan 2023 intake! (waitlist offered students are welcome as well!)

I just finished taking my CASPer test and SNAPSHOT test on July 28 - still waiting on results. Application still on 'Pending Department Review" status. I've been refreshing myCommunications and application status every day, even though I know I won't know till 2 months prior when the program starts :(. Waiting game sucks since we probably won't get to know if we got in or not till Oct (judging from the past forum posts).

How's everyone feeling/doing?

hey what were your GPA and experiences

could you guys who got accepted tell me how your grades and experience were

Hey @masterpoo

I've posted this in the first page of this forum but I'll put it here again:

I currently work as a lab assistant with over 5,000+ hours at a hospital, volunteered as an assistant for a pool therapy dedicated those with disabilities, did some COVID screening, and worked in customer service for more than 5+ years! I’ve applied with 63 credits and a 3.3 GPA at BCIT but 2.88 GPA from VCC.. Other than that all my pre reqs are ranged from B+-A+! 

And surprisingly I got in with a second quartile result from CASper - which I thought was going to cripple my application, but it didn't.

All the best and good luck!

Hi everyone,

I just got accepted at BCit for the RN program Jan 2023 intake. I've taken all my prereqs at VCC and my GPA is 3.07. I volunteered at VGH for 2 years. Being a caregiver since I came here in Canada probably made my application strong and also having a degree back in my country. Please keep applying and stay focus. Good luck to all!
