Hi,
Just wondering if there are any other future MRU students starting in the nursing program this September?
I received my acceptance package a couple weeks ago and I could not be more excited!

Update:
So I'm near the top of the waitlist (28th) out of 430 people. The cut off this year was 83% for highschool and 3.8 for university route. I find it stupid that a 83% is calculated as equivalent to a 3.8 ...university classes are alot harder than high school. Anyways she said my chances were good but Im still nervous. If I don't get in this year ill spend another year in limbo -_-

Yeah that is pretty ridiculous. Also I find it strange that they calculate gpa based on only your 4 most recent courses. That's great that you are so high up on the list, I really hope you get in! Do you know how many students are in the program each year?
They accept 320 every fall and apparently have over 900 applications.
I'm so confused with mount royal. So they reviewed my 4 fall courses with a 3.7 gpa and I was wait listed since the early admission cut off is 3.8. I think the reason they have a huge waitlist is because high school people can self-report grades they haven't even earned yet.
They aren't clear on how they calculate final admission (whether on 4 fall course or 5 winter courses). If anyone knows please feel free to post.
