   meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

   If anyone else who didn't get accepted is still reading this thread (and/or for those who will read it for future applications) I did reach out to both TRU and UVIC. I asked them if they could comment on the greatest weakness of my application so tha...

   Thank you Rimlak and IslandNurse for your responses!

   meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

   Hello, Congrats to everyone who received offers! I am jealous, but from what has been commented so far I can definitely see what a competitive pool it was! 🙂 I wanted to ask if those who received offers wouldn't mind commenting about your relev...

   meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

   Mostly distance. Students will have to go on campus for the lab components, but they said they will consolidate that as much as possible to minimize the need to come on site. I don't know if we were told an estimate, I think it was maybe at the end o...

   meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

   Ah okay! Good to know. This was my first year applying and I took the information on each school's website really at face value. I wish I'd questioned those that were a bit more ambiguous about their delivery methods. C'est la vie.

   meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

   Ah okay, makes sense! Well, they did say they would prioritize local applicants and your experience is so well rounded! I'm sure you'll get the offer 🙂 On another note, I saw your below message about applying to places only offered by distance - w...

   meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

   Oh, you'd rather risk the new program with TRU? I assumed everyone would choose the established schools if they had the choice. They will be happy to have locals, I'm sure if you were good enough for UVIC and UBC that you'll get the offer for TRU too...

9. 2023 Applications to UBC and UVic NP program

   meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

   I think I read somewhere that either UBC or UVIC had almost 200 applications last year? At some point in my deep dive I did find stats for one of those schools for the last few years, it was doubling every year since Covid... Now I just can't remem...

    Has your status changed on their portal or does it still say "under review by department"?

    Thank you for the update! I have definitely been checking obsessively and will back off...

    meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

    Is there anyone else who has applied to TRU? If so, how/when did you submit your references information? I submitted my application yesterday afternoon and received the confirmation email from BC Education Planner but nothing else. After a whil...

    meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

    Oh, where did you hear 3 years? I didn't think they looked favourably on re-applicants, but I guess I assumed that because of UVIC saying you needed to write a letter addressing how you've improved since the last time you applied. I wish we could at ...

14. 2023 Applications to UBC and UVic NP program

    meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

    I think I came across stats on one of their websites and last year was like 188? But every year for the past 3 or 4 have been almost doubling with applications...I don't have the highest hopes. I thought I was a better fit for UBC anyways, and I imag...

    meowmeowchirp replied to alibaba3's topic in NP Students

    Was rejected from UBC this afternoon 😞 So those emails are starting to come out, just FYI. I know I'm not a very competitive candidate on paper though, so I'm not particularly surprised. Nothing from UVIC yet and no change in my status on the appl...
