Just wondering if anyone has thought about applying for the Jan 2018 intake yet? I'm finishing up my second A&P credit, as well as Stats, and currently am sitting at a 3.5 GPA with the 2 English and 1st A&P prereqs. Worst case, with the two final classes, it will drop down to between 3.4-3.3. I do have a Bachelor's in Psych and English, but my GPA from that was far less than stellar, so I'm hoping they don't look into those grades at all.
I'm panicking a bit though, as I don't have many options aside from Langara. I didn't plan on nursing at all up until like last year (hooray for useless Arts Degrees), so I don't have volunteer hours or any of the high school pre-reqs like Chem and Math. Also, I can't afford to wait any longer to get this going.
Does anyone know the GPA cutoff for the last few intakes? I keep reading that nothing less than 3.6 will get in, and if by some miracle I ace Stats and A&P II, I'll barely hit that at 3.67.
I hope that the presence of a degree will help but this high GPA cutoff has me really nervous.
I would hope that it's still kind of early... fingers crossed. They only had like what maybe two/three days of sending out letters?
I just called Langara to see if they would tell me how they're sending out emails. The Admissions office said that they're sending offer and rejection emails first, and then waitlists last. So, I think it's safe to say I've been waitlisted One of my friends who was waitlisted for the Jan 2017 intake got taken off the waitlist in November, so there's still hope. It doesn't make me feel any better though

I haven't heard anything back yet either. I'm assuming that means I'm waitlisted.
