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 ??Are u an internal or external applicant at York? Also, if you don’t mind what is your GPA for your last 30 &60 credits?

Hi Everyone! 

 I was waitlisted at Western last week and am trying to gage the cuttoff pre waitlist, as well as span of the waitlist right now! Preferably in % as I know GPA scales can vary school to school. Also if you were accepted/ declined what was your average!? Thanks!

I got into Western last week but declined it to go to York. My GPA is around 8.3 on a 9.0 scale so probably around 3.8 on a 4.0 scale.

Hey Everyone that’s still pending at Mac I’m not sure if this is an automatic reply but this is the response I got in regards to my application status...

“Hello,

Honestly I’m not too sure, but it’s likely offers are just sent out on a rolling basis when spots become available

Congratulations!! Do you mind sharing your final year GPA and your EC’s?

My final GPA is 3.87/4.00. For the past four years, I have volunteered in my university as a responder, accessibility outreach team member. I was a part of a non-profit organization called Frontier College, volunteered as a tutor for low-income children, and later became a program manager. I was a cancer clinic assistant in Sunnybrook. I was a work-study in an ecology lab in my third year. I am currently working as a translator.

Has anyone on the Nipissing wailtist received an offer yet?

Hey! Congratulations on both offers! Do you mind sharing why you decided York over Western?
