Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) Bachelor of Science in Nursing - Advanced Entry (BSN-AE)

Published

Hello! 

I will be starting the AE-BSN at KPU, and was wondering what the curriculum sort of looked like. I looked at the course descriptions, and it seems like most of them are delivered online however how many times would be the approx. expected amount to be in person (I live a little further out and was curious as to what my commute would be looking like). And also just any more info would be much appreciated on what to expect! Thank you so much!!

Hi there! I was wondering what your GPA was in university and how difficult it was to get in? I'm applying for Fall 2025 entry and I am so nervous

Hi! I am entering the 5th semester in the program. Let me know if anyone has questions. For the first 3 semesters, there is a lab on campus, which could be about a week long but also clinical in the lower lowermainland.

How often do you have to be on campus per week/what is the general GPA acceptance rate?

You are only on-site during lab, semester 1 about a week and a half, semester 2, 4 days and semester 3, 2.5 weeks, but is broken up by week during the term. Semester 4, 4 days. Not sure what the general GPA but as long as you have the minimum requirements and get your documents in right away you will be accepted. It is first qualified  first accepted. Hope this helps!
