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.

Just got a conditional offer to Humber!! My top choice is U of T but I'm so happy to have gotten into second-entry nursing overall, since I only applied to U of T and Humber! 

Congrats! Can I ask when you applied ? Just wondering how long they take to reply back.

Thanks!

Congrats to everyone and their recent offers!!

I'm still waiting on Humber. Crossing my fingers so bad, I saw someone on Reddit got a conditional offer as well. Do you know if they send out offers over the next several weeks/months?

I applied Feb 26th. Pretty much as soon as I got the e-mail that admissions were open! 

I just got the Humber offer as well.

No email yet, just status update in my profile.

Anyone know how look it took for them to hear back from York once their application status changed to under consideration? It’s been like that for a week and a half and I’m so anxious to hear from them!

Did anyone get accepted to york this week?

I know my application has been in consideration for a bit over a week but I havent heard back yet.

Hey All! I've been following this thread and thought I would finally make an account, the only nursing program I decided to apply for this year was at McMaster, does anyone have an idea of how competitive the average is to be accepted and when Mac will send out a response?  thanks!

Hey All!

Congrats to everyone for their recent offers!! 

I did not know Humber had second entry program, I applied yesterday, the question is, I already have the courses(currently doing two though) they are offering for preparation semester, would I able to get into the program directly if I have good GPA? I read the program overview and I emailed but haven't heard back so I just wanted to ask here? is there any other application for the program directly or same on ontariocolleges.ca?

Thank you alllll!

After you get into the second entry program you can transfer your credits for the courses you've already completed and if you've completed all of them you can get into the program which starts in January ( the prep semester is from September to December but the actually nursing program starts in January) but there's no other application to complete except for the one for the second entry one on ontariocolleges.ca
