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 know in Ontario that same GPA translates to 77-79% if I'm not mistaken. I'm not exactly sure how Western (or any of the other Universities) translates those grades. What I'm guessing is since to get that GPA you need to get 87-89% they took the percentage rather than the GPA and converted it to what an 87-89% would be over here.
& Thank you! If I get off the waitlist I'd then have to figure out if Humber or Western would be better for me.
Hi, are you on the wait-list for Humber or been accepted already? If on the wait-list, when were you placed on that.
Thanks

I was accepted to Humber & Nipissing during their first wave of acceptances. I wasn’t put on the waitlist so I don’t have any information on it. Wish I could help more because I know it sucks to be kept waiting this long

Thanks. Yeah I applied late to Humber so am currently on the wiatlist. I had no idea about Humber or Nipissing's program. And still waiting on UofT and York. Wish they would just tell us already ?

Humber was waiting to see if they could offer their own nursing programs without UNB. They got approved and decided to make this year the last year of collaboration so while other schools started accepting applications in October, they didn't even open the program till literally the end of February.

something tells me they havent even looked at my application LOL
Yes, I contacted them and they said the same thing. They didn't even answer my question regarding whether they will be opening more spots.

Yeah, they tend to just say "we can't comment on your application" but you will hear back by June 30. The only thing that's giving me hope is hearing that some people have already received a rejection so having the status at "Application received" might still mean you got a spot or are waitlisted. At least I think

Same, that's what I was thinking too. But who knows. It's seems I'll be waiting until the 30th from all my choices.
