hi,
i am from saudi arabia. new graduate. i just received scholarship form saudi government to complete my nursing course and get master degree in canada (university of western ontario). i am very afraid from crne and that which i read from this forum, it's difficult.:uhoh21: so, can i avoid this exam by take health administration?. are they require to write the canadian exam to take the license of college nursing of ontario if my plan to take health administration?
on the other hand, uwo is requiring me to provide certificate for statistics and research. now, if you have idea if uwo has online-course for this? i searched on internet but i was unable to find it and i sent to them e-mail but no answer.
in the event that there is no available on-line course or i can not provide this certificate while i am here, from your experience will uwo give me course before they accept me to continue my program?
best regards,
NotReady4PrimeTime, RN

I don't know if UWO offers statistics and research courses by distance education (they probably do, and likely Fanshawe College too), but I do know that to receive a license from the College of Nurses of Ontario, you have to pass the CRNE. If you take health administration outside of a nursing program, I wouldn't think you' d need a nursing license. You said you're a new grad... from a nursing program? Did you obtain your nursing education in London or in Saudi? If you were educated in Saudi then you have to be licensed there before you can be considered for licensure in Ontario, which means getting permission to write the CRNE. If you were educated here and are required to be a registered nurse to do the Masters in Health Administration you have to write the CRNE. I guess you will have to be patient and wait until UWO replies to your email. They're the ultimate arbiter of who is admitted and what programs they offer.
Thank you so much for your reply, I am graduate from Saudi Arabia.About statistics and research course could you give me the link.Do you know if accepting me in UWO in graduate program is difficualt with GPA 4.39/5 and without epxerience because am so anxious about this point
