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.

congrats! what was your last two year GPA if you don’t mind me asking?

I think I calculated it to be a 3.88 when I used omsas!

Hey everyone,

I was offered a spot on the waitlist at Western and I have accepted an offer from Queen's. I was wondering if accepting the waitlist position will affect my Queen's offer.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! Just received a conditional offer to Queen's ?

Congratulations! If you ended up accepting the offer, have you received a final offer yet? If you have, how long did you take to receive it after you sent your final transcript?

I got a conditional offer back in April and I sent my final transcript about 3 weeks ago, but I'm still waiting for an update.

Hi,

Has anyone been accepted into Humber recently (ie. last 2/3 weeks)? Is anyone's Humber offer about to expire and they don't plan on accepting? Just trying to gauge their waitlist situation.

Thanks in advance to whoever responds.

I applied late for humber, did you get a “waitlisted” decision? Or is there just no decision until you get in?

Hey, I was wondering if you got waitlisted for humber or if your file says no decision?

It still says no decision. I applied later too and was missing a pre-req so they wouldn't consider me until I showed a midterm mark in the course and by the time I did that the program now has a wait listed status. They just told me I'm under consideration but I don't think they have any spots to left to offer unless someone else drops out or doesn't meet a condition.

Same here, but Western has me waitlisted and I have accepted at Ryerson for my backup. Wondering if I accept the waitlist position at Western, would it impact my acceptance at Ryerson?

SAME. All of my transcript took awhile to be sent from different schools (took LOP courses) and my high school requirement had to be manually edited by the admissions staff to be eligible and they just confirmed last week. I saw on previous humber stats though that around 10-20 people don’t end up enrolling, so there’s still hope ?

accepting a waitlist offer doesn't affect ouac

It doesn't. your good. 

Has anyone heard from UofT in the past 2 weeks? I wonder if they also received funding for more seats.

I am wondering the same thing!! Anxiously waiting to still hear back from them 

Does Western let you know your position in the waitlist?
