Ontario Second Entry Nursing Fall 2021

Published

Hey everyone!

I haven't seen a post for Fall 2021 yet so here it is!

My choices are:

1. UofT

2. McMaster

3. Nipissing SPP

I started my OUAC application in November and now trying to work on the supplemental packages. My CASPer Test is on January 12, 2021.

I need to take Anatomy and Physio course(s) however, I'm having a hard time figuring out what would satisfy the requirements from all three universities. My options so far are:

1. Take CBLG 101 in Winter and CBLG 111 in Spring at Ryerson. However final grade will be in June; hoping that's fine.  This satisfies all 3 unis

2. Take SCS 2159 in Winter from UofT which is enough for UofT and McMaster but not for Nipissing. I have to take an Anatomy course just for Nip.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education from back home, been working as an RECE in Toronto the last 8 years, have a Diploma in Nonprofit Management at Ryerson. My cGPA is 3.55 which I'm worried about. Lots of extra curricular activities from university and volunteering here in Toronto.  I still have to compute the GPA for the last two years.

I requested WES to send my transcripts to Nip and McMaster and asked my old uni to send to UofT.

It's been an expensive application so far; really hoping I get in! Looking forward to chatting with you all and sharing our experiences.

I also just got denied unfortunately! I was an internal transfer applicant. My GPA was a 10.4/12.0 on the Mcmaster scale

Sorry to hear that ?  How do you feel you did on your CASPer?

No it's okay aha I'm glad that I have Queen's as my backup but I hate that I have to transfer when all my friends are here at Mac. I think I did okay, it didn't go terribly but I also could have been a bit more prepared

I just checked Mosaic and it had the blue circle!

Hey everyone, check your Mosaic! I got denied from McMaster ?  It was my third choice. I checked around lunch time and there was no change so they must have updated in the afternoon. I have a conditional offer from Nipissing which I'm very excited about! I am still waiting for UofT but most likely will choose Nipissing for its unique program. I am based in Toronto so happy not to have to move/commute. 

Does anyone know if unis give out feedback to those denied? Just good to know, especially re CASPer.


Good luck everyone!

I got denied too! I’ve already accepted UofT though. Best of luck to everyone still waiting for responses!! ?

I mean I thought my CASPer went okay but clearly not LOL I was thinking maybe the fact that I’ve already accepted a program on OUAC makes the difference? Not sure ??‍♀️
