Camosun college 2013

World Canada CA Programs

Hi, I wanted to start this thread to see who else would be going to Camosun for nursing in September 2013. It is a waitlist system so basically I know I am guaranteed to be accepted. I am from Vancouver so moving to Victoria would be a big change and costing me a lot. I wanted to see if anyone else is going to be going there? Or if anyone living in Vancouver is? Also, do you think I should continue trying to get in in the Vancouver region? Any questions, thoughts and answers are welcome. I hope to hear back and get a better idea as in what I would like to do and what others are doing who are in a similar situation.

Thanks! :)

I thought they had suspended intake into the program b/c they are changing the intake requirements?

They have changed their intake process, but those of us who applied before the change will still be kept on the waitlist and accepted when a seat becomes available.

That's great you got in earlier than the instituted change! I wish you all the best as you start out in the program. They've revamped it so your first year will be much different than mine was. Hopefully it's better, too!

As for your question, always cover your bases, so if there's a chance you can get in a Vancouver program, why not keep applying?! Save $ and stress.

Though Victoria is pretty amazing... :)

Thanks Heather! The funny thing is I just found out 2 days ago I got accepted into Langara's nursing program here in Vancouver. It came as a complete shock, but a good one :)
