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.

hi everyone

I've received acceptances from both the uoft and mac accelerated programs and am having a tough time deciding between the two! if anyone has any pros or cons of either program that would be super helpful (I would be commuting for uoft and will need to rent a place for mac)

thanks!!

This is what my important document tab says on webadvisor (see attached image). It doesn't say that it has been received under the Status tab, but it says that the acceptance was received through OUAC

It took about 3 days for my acceptance to show up on web advisor. As long as you submitted to OUAC on time there will be no issue!

Hi everyone. I accepted my conditional offer for Nipissing (Due May 28). 

OUAC received my final transcript but I don't see anything updated on Webadvisor whether they got it. Is anyone in a similar situation? I emailed admissions but got an email back saying it's experiencing high volume. 

I'm experiencing this too. OUAC shows that my transcript was received (I applied with my final transcript) but on Webadvisor it says "21FW Final - Transcript Submit by deadline". I've sent an email but I haven't heard anything. 

Hey, new here! Can someone explain how the offers from U of T go out? I've read that the last week of offers comes the last week of May, then the waitlist starts the next week?? Is that correct, or am I confused?

Hey, I'm not 100% sure but I think the way it works is that you can hear back if your waitlisted or declined up until the end of June. I don't think everyone finds out right away (I don't even know if anyone finds out at the beginning honestly), and that you can get waitlisted up until like June 30th. 

In terms of offers though, they come out every Friday typically so I guess we will see next week if they send more out on the Friday or is tomorrow is the last day.

I’m still waiting too, it’s making me nervous not knowing an answer yet 

Have you tried to email them? I might email them tomorrow.

I emailed them right before they sent out offers at the start of the month and all I got back was that they didn’t have a specific deadline for how long offers would be sent out until and that offers would start to be sent out in May.

For Mac’s Accelerated program, the website says they will send out decisions no later than June 30!

Do you mind posting the link where you saw this on their program website? I’ve been looking and can’t find it

If you go to the Accelerated section under the application process, it should be at the very bottom - https://nursing.mcmaster.ca/prospective-students/admission
