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.
Yes I was for Humber . That’s actually also the o my second entry nursing I applied to.
Thank you! Do you mind sharing your GPA and what all requirements did you fulfill? Would you know if other universities would also accept the international degree?
Congrats to those how have received acceptances, and for those who haven't, theres still time don't worry!
I'm currently debating between York and Western 2nd entry programs and I was wondering if anyone could tell me the pros/cons of both, or any information they know about either of these programs! I'm specifically interested in global health nursing, so if anyone knows anything about their programs in relation to that it would be super helpful!
Thank you! Best of luck to everyone ?
Hey! One thing to consider is the hospitals that you'll have a chance to work in during clinicals in school. If you're interested in working in the GTA in the future, York might be a better choice. A lot of students get job offers from their final placement. You'll come out with a BScN regardless, so I'd rate clinical opportunities pretty high.

Yes other universities accept international degrees. I Ve seen some people on this forum get in as long as they meet the pre requisite courses .
my GPA was 3.76 on a scale of 4.0 when WES evaluated. The only pre reqs I needed where grade 12 English, mathematics,biology and Chemistry as a matured student .
however because Humber admits you into the preparatory program you don’t need any other pre reqs as you have to take anatomy, Microbiology Pathophysiology psychology and stats in the prep semester. If you already have these course equivalent then they are waived for you and you can go straight into the nursing program in Jan rather than do the prep semester which is sept to December
Has anyone here been accepted with an international non science degree which was evaluated and recognized by WES?
Hey! I have an international bachelor's - in science though but not in healthcare. I got my WES evaluation when I moved to Canada in 2012 and just requested copies to be sent to Nipissing and McMaster for this year. I got accepted to both with a 3.55/4 GPA (not sure how they calculated last 2 years/best 10). I received a refused admission from UofT (submitted a transcript straight from university; not WES)

Thanks again! I am taking prerequisites related to A&P, psych, biochemistry, humanities etc but I haven’t taken any grade 12 prerequisites. Would that be needed as well for every program?
