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.

Anyone else taking prereqs and waiting to hear from UofT? My portal still says "Application Received."

I have my AP finals on Monday and hoping to submit transcript by May 31. I'm nervous I won't have a good enough mark to get in. 

Do you mean NOW as in Summer courses? I completed prereqs during Winter 2021 and I have yet to hear back.

I'm taking AP in Athabasca and I guess it doesn't go by Winter/Spring-Summer/Fall. I started the course in Feb, hoping to be done next week! 

When did your Winter grades get in?

I am, taking BIOL 230 (physiology). I had my exam booked for the 25th but I currently have covid and its not treating me well. I will be late to hand in this prereq and its the only one I'm missing. I know that on Join ID it says, documents submitted after deadline will be processed with space permitting and I am hoping it works out since acceptances are offered until June 30  and I am hoping to get it in by the 7th bc there is no way I can write this exam right now.

Oh no mm1317! Feel better! I feel like we've chatted a few times before. Hoping for a speedy recovery for you! And yes - I think if submitted after May 31, it's space permitting. Maybe send admissions an email when you submit transcript? All the best to you ❤️

I think all of my grades came in the last week of April!

Has anyone got into Alberta ? What was your GPA ? I completed my application along with final transcripts in January but it is still under review . 

You're on the wrong subthread for Alberta. I think this is just for Ontario schools? Or maybe Ontario residence, I'm not 100% sure aha

Does York give out offers every Friday as well?

Thank you! And yes, we have! Also, is there an email UofT has that we can send the transcript to?  AU has that auto sender but we need an email, otherwise mailing it will take too long.

I think I just sent it to [email protected] in Feb. I have to double check!

Hey guys I know this has been asked before but we can accept another offer on OUAC as decisions continue to roll out, if we've already accepted one program right now? Does the current offer we accepted just negate itself after we accept the other one?

I got accepted into the University of Alberta on March 10th for the After Degree Program and March 24th for the Honours After Degree Program. Took the Casper Feb 11th. GPA: 3.5 (last year). I declined my offers so there might be some spots opening up. Hope this helps!
