I am currently a third year York University student hoping to apply for second entry nursing at York
only next year (yes I am going through the strike).
Since applications open in November, I thought it would be best to get this forum started. I am hoping to get more insight into the program and I hope current and past nursing students would share their views on the program and how job searching went. Also, what nursing specialties do most York nursing graduates enter as I am hoping to get into public health. Furthermore, share your insights on Humber, McMaster, U of T, Trent, Queens, Western, Ottawa and Nippissing. (I think that is all) and don't forget to include your acceptance GPAs.
Hi Guys! Congrats to everyone on their acceptances & for those waiting don't lose hope :) I am currently a 2nd year compressed student at Trent, so for those who are planning or have accepted their offer there is a nursing Facebook group created for you guys: Trent University-Compressed Nursing 2019-2021
Got an offer from Western today around 3pm (6pm eastern). I’ll be keeping my uoft offer so another spot will open up at western, but i’m still waiting on ubc as well. The stress has been real but finally starting to relax a little haha. To those still waiting, acceptances can go out until the end of summer i think, end of june at least! Good luck ?
Congratulations!!! what was your GPA in the last 2 years if you dont mind?

I'm still waiting to hear back from Trent, but how do you like the program? I really want to work in Toronto and I'm worried the program would focus on rural work. Do you find this to be the case?

Hi! For most of the clinical they a rural for first, second and third year clinical. For pre-consolidation and consolidation you can choose anywhere for your clinical as long as your gpa is in good academic standing. However, students have no problem getting hired in Toronto after they are done the program. I love the program, personally. We get a lot of hands on experience in lab any clinical, profs (most) very supportive and lots of ways to get involved within the nursing community
I got accepted to Western today (Apr 30) at around 6pm!!!! Check your emails and ouac account, it seems like its another round as I have to accept by May 17 (before the big May 30th round). Good luck everyone!!!
I have been following this forum for awhile and decided to make an account today because I got accepted into u of t! I am so excited for the next 2 years, hope to see many of you there!!

Thanks! I’m not sure tbh. I took 6 courses both terms in my third year so i have 22 courses in my last two years. If i calculate based on the last 20 (not including 2 pretty bad grades from first term in third year lol) i had an 86.7. Including those two grades for an overall of 22 courses was 84.9. So I’m not sure how they calculate if you took more than 5 courses in one term.
York or UofT's 2nd entry program?! I have heard a lot of information about UofT's program but not much about York's. If anyone has insight about York's program please share!
