I'm currently conditionally accepted for the winter term at grant mac. I received my letter a few months ago and it says as long as i maintained my current GPA and passed my clearance check i'll be all set to enrol for winter term.
If i complete my security clearance early on (within 90 day period) will I receive unconditional acceptance sooner?
As well after receiving full acceptance, do i create my own schedule or will I choose from set patterns?

I'm pretty sure you already have the answer on your own by this time. It is fine as long as you pay the deposit fee which is $200 to hold your spot. It would be better to give your security clearance sooner though since it takes about a week to change your status message and fully allows you to complete enrolment. You choose from set patterns. I got accepted for winter term too and am waiting for enrolment process to be opened :) Good luck!

Submit your security clearance as early as possible anyway (within the given time frame though) and, like the poster said before me, pay your deposit as well - get as much out of the way as soon as you can. You choose your first semester courses from a set of patterns and then the program automatically enrolls you in courses for the second semester… all of this will be outlined in a document they send through e-mail.
I would also recommend getting a hold of your immunization record through AHS, as well as getting the BCLS-HCP Level C Certificate class and It’s Your Move Certificate class out of the way (if you haven't already and if these are available to you). It doesn't seem like much but once when you're in the program, you might find that there really isn't much time to set aside for these things.
hey!
Are those extra requirements required immediately? I was thinking could it be possible to get those out of the way after April.

If you are accepted in the winter intake, don't worry about taking your CPR course until the summer - you don't need it until your second semester and you need to renew it yearly - you probably don't want to renew it in the middle of the school year if you don't have to. It's Your Move will be offered in the school year, but if they open it up for the summer, take it then (it's pretty new and they have only started requiring us to take it as of last year). Immunization history can be gathered any time, but wait until you get the immunization form before getting any new ones/boosters.
Thanks SurroDoula:)
