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.

Has anyone gotten off the UofT waitlist?

I’m on the waitlist and I haven’t heard from them. They’ve been real quiet

Hello everyone, I'm planning to apply to UofT for the 2022-2023 cycle. I was wondering if anyone has any tips on writing a good personal statement or on the supplementary application in general. Thanks!

Congrats!! Were you placed on the waitlist late? Based off your GPA I’m surprised they called you that late.

hey! I kinda broke it down into 3 parts:

1st: talk about why I wanted to get into nursing (with a personal story)

2nd: talked about my ECs and how they related to nursing

3rd: talked about why (as a whole) I would be a good fit and what I could bring to the program
