Ontario Second Entry Nursing Fall 2020

World Canada CA Programs

Updated:   Published

Hey, I used to creep these forums for the past few years and they helped affirm my decision to apply to nursing school for Fall 2020. I didn't see one started for next year so I thought, why not start one?

I graduated a while back so I'm a bit older, but my top three choices are:

1. Queen's

2. McMaster

3. York

4. Humber-UNB

Hi everyone! I'm a 4th year student studying at Western and I applied to York, UofT and Humber! My cGPA is sitting around 3.3 right now but my last 5 credits will probably be around 3.8/9. However, I'm completing all my prerequisite course this semester so the marks won't be out until end of April/ beginning of May. I have some extracurriculars like volunteering at the hospital, exec of a few clubs, job as a residence advisor. I'm super scared about my gpa though ? What are my chances of getting in?

Just an FYI, I did hear back from York last week so they are sending out applications. I did my Casper in January though so that’s probably part of it!

Good Luck!

Hey! Do you mind if I ask if you were already a York student or are you applying from another school?

Also, have you completed all your prereqs already or was it a conditional offer?

Thanks!

I’m finishing up my degree from Waterloo next term!

i had finished all my prereqs already however my offer is still conditional. I need to keep a B+ average for the rest of my degree.

got into humber this AM! ? I actually went for the prep semester two years ago and struggled. It wasn’t hard but i didn’t get approved for osap and was just struggling to work full time, live on my own and manage school. My GPA when I applied last time was 3.63, and 3.87 by the end of my final semester. With my prep courses it went back down to 3.61 for this admission session!

congratulations! I was wondering if you could elaborate on why Queens is in your top choice, I tried to look up a bit on the program but couldn't find much about the structure

thanks! ?
