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.

My dad is SUPER against it and wants me to just blast out the 2 years wherever I get accepted and start working, but I'm not 100% set on going to Humber and doing this. I have emailed McMaster to see if they would consider transferring my application for the accelerated program to the basic stream for September entry, if they have the seats for it. So I guess we'll see what they say.
Thank you so much for the detail you put in your response! I'll be putting some serious thought into this, as the rejection from McMaster's 2-year program has left me with little hope for UofT, just leaving me with my acceptance to Humber which I'm not dead set on yet.
what was your GPA?

My family was feeling the same way, but I would be working during my undergrad and after first year, as a nurse extern, which helps with finances and experience. Also, after McMaster, my hopes for being a NP kind of went downhill too, which is why I am okay with doing 4 years to get my grades up. I am also praying for UofT, but otherwise I will be going to Ryerson. Good luck, hope it all works out for you!

I've made this argument with my dad and all he ever says is "the longer you're out of school the harder it is to go back." So I'm definitely at odds with my dad about school and what to do ? Ultimately it will depend on what McMaster and UofT says. All of the input is super appreciated! ❤️

Since some peoples' Mosaic accounts still say pending, my assumption is that this is their loose "waitlist" and that the offers that people reject will likely be given to individuals who's portals are still listed as pending. This is just speculation though.
