Ontario Second Entry Nursing Fall 2020

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

Thank you! I'm not sure if I'm going to accept yet debating between this and SPP ?but what is the group chat for UofT called?

I could totally understand you! I am still waiting to hear back from UofT, but I am currently on the waitlist for SPP. Just because I did my undergrad at UT, and I did not really have a good experience. I found SPP is a much hands on program for nursing practice. Besides, a lot of nurses at Toronto general were saying that UT did not prepare nurses well in clinical, and a lot of new grads struggled a lot. Surprisingly, I did not encountered that many nurses graduated from UT at General. But I did know one, and she said she liked the program, but felt the same way about lack of hands on experiences.

Aww thank you! Crossing my fingers you get in!

Does anyone know if U of T automatically converts my Western GPA (5.0 FCE) using Toronto's grading scale? Or does U of T calculate my GPA based on Western's grading scale?

I'm asking because my Western GPA (5.0 FCE) is 3.69 (B+), but based on Toronto's scale, my GPA would be a 3.71 (A-).

CONGRATS on people who got in. Those waiting, hang in there <3

Just got accepted at UofT couple of hours ago too! Really excited to meet my classmates and this next chapter of my life.
