This is super early to talk about applying to nursing school for 2016, but it's always better to be well-prepared! Let's share some thoughts and help each other out!
I am re-applying to nursing schools as I did not get in last year, and planning to enroll to more courses for pre-reqs and to increase my GPA (I graduated with a B.A.)hopefully this year will be much better and with luck!!!!
I have a few universities in mind to apply -
University of Toronto
York
Nipissing
Western
Queen's
McMaster
Should I apply to more? Which one should I apply? I am super eager to enter the program and I failed once, failing twice is not allowed!
Feel Free to give me suggestions or ask questions! Here is a link I found online listing most of the second entry nursing programs.
I just emailed their help desk with my student number and program name and start date and they gave me my login information, i filled out my geopref when i picked my classes, i wasnt accepted until the second week of June and i enrolled last week of June
Hey!
I called NPCO AND called Synergy, we won't get login information till late August and can book after that.
I'm not sure how @Aly87 got yours? Did you fill out and submit you GeoPref form super early?
Hi Everyone! I am a new graduate from UofT nursing. Just passed my NCLEX on Wednesday! Yay! If anyone has been accepted to UofT has any questions feel free to message me. I absolutely loved the program. The professors are so incredibly helpful and as a community organizer and researcher, I found the program spoke to both of my interests. You have the opportunity to engage in research as well as, community activism. There is also an amazing community. The program really fosters community spirit. However, the best part of the program is definitely the placements. I had the most amazing and diverse placements and perhaps unfairly, UofT students are often privileged by hospitals and staff. As I move into the job market, I have also found that the UofT degree helps. I have spoken to some new graduates that are having trouble finding work and I have had 6 job offers ( of course this could be a combination of factors, but I think the UofT name does help). Anyway, let me know if you have questions!
For those who got a conditional offer from York, how lenient are they if your average drops after finals? I was sick during the exam period in the Winter so I just wrote my exams and I'm a little worried
Sorry, @DLin1 I didn't see your post! Yes, I was able to work at UofT. For both years I worked around 10-15 hours, was part of student government and organized a number of events. It was quite difficult to manage the first year but I learned a lot about time management. Also, TBH I didn't really have a social life during first year. The upside to this was that I made some amazing and very close friends in the program!
how lenient are they??
