Haha, sweet! lol I was looking at the nursing statistics and I think the M to F ratio in the nursing profession was 1:20 or something like that. Great to know there'll be atleast two guys in my grad hahaha.

So the difference between Waitlist Rollover and Waitlisted for Career Program is that those with rollover status should be expected in start in the subsequent term while those with waitlisted status should continue to wait?

Thanks!

When I checked my application status in early Feb, it said rollover. But when I checked today, it's backed to waitlisted. I submited my application in October, so I'm no way near the two-yr waitlist lol.

My status is back to saying waitlisted again now too. I have been on the waitlist for nearly 2 years ( for the LPN- BN bridge). I am getting ready to give up if not in soon :(

Ohhh no! >.

But I'm sure that if you're already 28-29 on the waitlist, it should be your turn very soon! Don't give up :)

Also, does anyone what the current status of the langara nursing program is? Did langara start to accept applications again?

I think langara has still put a hold on the accepting further applications to their nursing program. Have you guys tried BCIT or Cap? They also offer full RN programs. UBC offers it as well, but the app process is more lengthy then others.

I registered to start the LPN - BSN bridge program through Athabasca. All of the program is done distance/online with the obvious exception of several clinicals/practicums. I was hoping to go to Langara, as I think it would be a lot easier to complete in an actual classroom environment but I don't want to wait forever.

My anticipated start date is Sept. 2013... :uhoh3: So it's a 3-yr wait for me. I'm finishing up my first degree this May. Hopefully, I'll get into nursing school elsewhere... I've applied for several schools.

Hey everyone,

I have a question, regarding NURS 1100. I've been told that the clinical practice for this course is in the morning on Tues or wed. Is that outside of lecture time? On Langara website, the info is displayed like this :

-

Lec -T----- 0830-1220 C307

*********** S, *** W, ***** S Lec ------- 1930-2020 WWW

**********S, *** W, ***** S Lab --W---- 1330-1520 A369

******* L, ***** M, *** W,

Is T 8:30 - 12:20 considered the clinical practice time? OR is there an additional time for clinical (either on T or W morning)? I know that for 1141, it tells you specifically that there is a segment scheduled for PRAC. But it doesn't seem so here..

Thanks!

Hey Ian,

I heard that the clinicals are usually 6:30-3:30pm on monday-wednesday. I believe they start in term 2, term 1 is just some hospital tours. Also it depends which hospital your placement is at. I have a buddy in term 5, and his tuesdays and wednesday clinicals run until 10pm at night.

Did you hand in your langara criminal check form yet ?

Cheers !

Enoch
