DOUGLAS COLLEGE Winter 2022 Nursing intake

Published

Hey Guys,

I’m just here to remind Douglas College students who want pursue Nursing and are not yet offered an acceptance for Fall 2021 to apply tomorrow, February 1, 2021 for Winter 2022.

Let us not be worried about our waiting. Instead, let us utilize our time for other productive activities that can better prepare us for our careers ahead.

Best of luck to everyone!

Hi

Congrats!!

I would choose the earlier intake - so Langara (?) 

but on the other side, I like that Douglas has 6 sem only - so you will have a whole Summer to work and take some rest. Langara has 9 semester which will be more expensive and no rest between the year. 

But if you are accepted to BCIT, definitely go BCIT since they have the greatest reputation and 100% rate for getting a job right away after the school. I don't know if this is true or not, but I also heard that BCIT students get paid during their preceptorship. I am not sure tho. 

Also. if you don't mind me asking, what is your GPA for based on the requisites for langara?? 

And people I just got an acceptance email! 

Congrats on your acceptance!! ? And thank you for your input. Everything you said was correct. I'm still waiting to hear back from BCIT, but it's such a hard program to get accepted in. In terms of Douglas, I will have an easier workload, only 6 terms, summers off. Whereas at Langara, I would have to retake patho and micro I believe ? Douglas would also only be a 15 min drive from me and Langara would be around 45 mins (could be more depending on traffic). At the end of the day, we will be nurses regardless of the school we graduate from. I think the only thing holding me back is that people say Langara + BCIT has a better reputation than other schools. Does that really matter? If I accept Langara, I do start a semester earlier, but again it's more expensive and more semesters.. 

In terms of GPA, I have a 3.78 at Douglas. Since GPA at Langara is calculated on only 5 classes, I applied with a 3.99.

holy you are smart!! LOL

I agree that we will be nurses regardless of the school. But if I were you, I would choose the earlier one still because I prefer to become a nurses asap, but regarding the cost... I think short commute is the best LOL

Hahaha ? definitely took alot of work to get to that GPA. I had to upgrade 2 classes because I was rejected twice from langara and once from Douglas and BCIT. Wasn't easy. Thank you for your advice though! I have alot to think about. Congrats again on your acceptance! Maybe we will meet in the Winter ?
