Going uni after working as an RPN

Published

I'm 17 years old right now and I'm currently studying RPN at Centennial college. My plan is to graduate and work as an RPN to get the PR (permanent resident card because I'm an international student) and then go to university for lower tuition fee. I read that to go to university every college course I must have a B or higher to be in consideration. However, I recently got a C+ (which is a pass but not high enough to get to UNI) so do I still be able to go uni afterwards? Because my case is that I'm not in the bridging program, I'm working first and then go to UNI so will they consider my working experience later on?

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

I suspect you really need to ask the university you plan on going to... I think however many just bridge whilst working to RN

I'm in nursing school (BScN) program and some small school could take you like Nipissing or so. But I would try to get at least some A. I would talk to your program coordinator about. I believe after years and years of work, you can get in the BScN routes without having high marks.
