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 got accepted today! But I can't seem to send you a direct message would you be able to send me the link?

Congrats to those who have received an acceptance to uoft!!? just thought I’d share, so you can be on the look out, but the nursing undergraduate society (NUS) at uoft makes a facebook group every year for people who are attending to connect and share important info! Last year, they posted a link in this forum once the group was made!

Thanks for sharing this unknown friend - was going to mention this well! hang tight, the group for the class of 2023 will probably pop up soon! 

I applied for Nipissing, and my status changed today into "no decisions/accepted elsewhere". I was wondering if anyone has the same situation here? I did accept another one but only because it came early. Does anyone know if it would affect my chance to get acceptance by nipissing?

Does anyone know if UofT has reviewed all applications at this point, or does the rolling admissions mean each week they accept a couple while still going through the remainder of apps? 

Hey Everyone! I just wanted to write this post for those still waiting to hear back from UofT! I really do think they are one of the few nursing schools that look at applicants holistically and definitely beyond just grades. So I wouldn't worry too much about if you have research experience or anything like that because I didn't have any and I still got in! I think the main thing they want is that you're a 4th year applicant or already graduated and can show that you will excel in their program via grades and community involvement! 

Also, no matter what school you chose or where you decide to go, just remember that we will all be RNs in the end! Can't wait to meet some of you guys in September and good luck to everyone! ?
