Humber College Second Entry (2015)

Published

Figured I would start this thread so we can get some discussions going. I'm starting the Humber Second Entry program this September (2015). Pretty excited, also a bit worried about this 74% cut-off.

Who else is going to join me in the craziness of this program??

Anyone planning on playing sports at Humber? I'm hoping for some solid Intramural Hockey (aka. beer league!)

I was wondering if anyone knew the approximate costs of textbooks for the courses in the prep semester. Trying to plan finances for the next few years. Also, i only have to take 3 courses in the prep semester, so do I still have to pay the full tuition for that term? Thanks!!!

I don't know the answer to that, it's a good question too. I only have to do four courses in prep. I'm hoping it'll lower the cost too.

Hey, has anyone received an information package? All I have received is what classes I need to take for the fall semester. Also does anyone know if we can sign up for classes yet? Only have to take 2 classes, and trying to figure out work schedule for September.

I haven't either. I was worried for a bit, I called the registrars office and said that was normal. I got accepted last year and received an info package. I just got an email to pay my deposit so I'm going to assume that I actually did get accepted, haha.

I hope so too! Just rented a place there.

You won't be signing up for the prep classes, the school signs you up for them automatically. Unfortunately, last year we didn't get our schedule until about a week or two before the semester actually started.

And also I'm pretty sure that if you have to take 3 or more prep classes you have to pay the full tuition (because you're a full time student). If you are only taking 1 or 2 you will be part time and will pay less.

So the website says there are 5 semesters + one intersession. I'm assuming the six terms that you've listed here encompass all that. I'm looking at tuition and costs and it says $7,144.26 for two semesters, so that's 3 x $7,144.26??

You need a 60% in every nursing class. The prep courses are not difficult at all, there were only a few people who didn't achieve the 74%. Definitely easier than the actual nursing classes so far.

Hey! in regards to the prep course I know that we also have to take introductory stats…for someone who is extremely weak in math and did very poorly in university math is it easy to attain 74% in this course, and how are you tested for it any insight is appreciated. Thanks!
