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.

I just got a call from Western, but I declined that offer as I have a spot at McMaster. I'm still waiting to hear from UofT as well.

I cancelled my acceptance to York so a spot will be opening up!

Thanks for sharing. My application at York has been under consideration for so long.

Hey! For western, what was your status prior to the call?

Congrats on Nipissing! Out of curiosity, after you accepted your waitlist offer for Western, how long did it take for your portal/OUAC to update? Currently waiting for mine to change from waitlist accepted to an offer and I was told I would need to accept it ASAP...

Thanks in advance! ?

I declined the offer from Western! But my status changed to declined offer right away

I think I had “waitlist accepted” prior to the call

For anyone that has been accepted to Nippising’s SPP program, I am very interested in applying this fall in the next admissions cycle should I be rejected from Mac this year. When it states the admission requirements is one course in physiology and one course in anatomy does that mean just 1 half credit of each (ex: courses that run 4 months (0.5) vs 8 months (1.0)) I think I have the prerequisites to apply but I thought I would ask just to be sure! I’ve emailed nippising about this and haven’t gotten an answer in over a week but they are most likely busy at the moment.

Hey if you go on their website they show pre req requirements as well as a list of possible courses to fulfill the requirements so you can check if yours are okay. I had one half physio and one half anatomy and I was accepted. Hope this helps :)

UBC tells you how you ranked on the CASPer relative to other UBC applicants if you get rejected/waitlisted!

Hey, what did you click on the student service centre in order to see your rankings?

Hi everyone,

I got accepted into UofT today as well. I was surprised to get an email since I thought decisions only came out on Friday as well. My final year GPA was 3.99/4.33 and I just finished my 3rd year of university! Best of luck to anyone still waiting ?

Wow, congratulations!! You are the first person I know that has gotten accepted without a completed degree ?? 

Has anyone heard from McMaster today?

I also applied to UBC and your rank is provided in an email. I think only those that get declined and waitlisted are provided a ranking
