BCIT September 2018 intake

[alterego]

Hello,

Have you guys heard anything from BCIT admissions yet? My anxiety is really high right now. I hate this period of uncertainty

Would you mind sharing your GPA and work/volunteer experience(s)?

I have close to about 150 credits with 2.9 cgpa. My pre-req GPA is either 3.6 or 3.4 depending if they accept my international credentials or not. I am currently working at two community mental health teams but I also work at long term care and acute care (VCH, PHC and FHA). I have been working in health care for 5 years. Since majority of my credentials are not from Canada, I don't know if this will affect my chances. Anyone else on the same boat?

Good luck to us!

How did you guys prepare for the quiz?

I am trying to log in to do the quiz and my access is denied. Has anyone else had this problem?

How did you guys prepare for the quiz?

I just thought of a couple different scenarios from my work/volunteer experience that I could apply to the four traits outlined in the quiz information document. I found the questions to be typical interview type questions. The hardest part for me was the time restriction as I'm a pretty slow writer!

Does anyone know when we hear back from BCIT after the quiz?

We hear back latest April 30th. You were able to log in no problem?

Just did my questionnaire yesterday! I talked with a friend who just started into the program in January and she, along with her classmates, said that the best way to approach each question is to use the STAR method and to make it very personal. The STAR method apparently means to describe a Situation, outline the Task at hand, explain any Action taken, and then the Response. Apparently, this method is also used for projects and assignments in the program as well. Hope this helps! I too talked about experiences at my two jobs and also discussed the time management skills and studying methods learnt as a university student!

Good luck to all of you :)

Ya I had issues, I emailed bcit help desk and I was told another way to access. Log in to mybcit, then click mycourses tab then click access to D2L. Hope that helps!

Just finished my questionnaire in a little over an hour. The questions are not bad at all. For those who have not done the questionnaire, my advice would be to have Grammarly open and type out your answers there first! Grammar and punctuation are marked, so anything would help! Also, make your responses as personal as you can with your examples. Hope this helps someone. Good luck everyone!

The Sept 2017 intake started sending out acceptance letters on April 13th! Although I believe they all wrote there quiz's earlier than we did, I would think we would hear next week!!!!!!!!! So anxious

I have a friend who was accepted into the Jan 2018 intake and she said she found out within a week of writing her quiz that she was accepted. So hopefully we hear back soon!!
