Ontario Second-Entry Nursing

Published

Hi Everyone!

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 -

  1. University of Toronto
  2. York
  3. Nipissing
  4. Western
  5. Queen's
  6. 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.

Best wishes to everyone! Good Luck!

Just found out that I was waitlisted at Humber and I recently took the Casper test so I know the process ar York is gonna take a little longer. Good luck to everyone!!

Do you mind sharing your gpa? I apologize if you already listed it in an earlier post.

Good luck to all still waiting to hear (and to those getting excited to start in September or August!)

I'm excited to start at QUEEN'S (AST) :up:, um, so long as I can pass BIOL 235 via Athabasca... haha.:shy: Never worried about passing anything before and while I'm not freaking out, I'm more nervous than usual. That course is no joke because the textbook is awful (in my humble opinion) and there are no lecture recordings, slides or cadavers... Anyone in the course has my empathy.

No worries. I have a 3.32 for my last 60 credits and a 3.73 for my last 30 credits

When did you apply?

Does anyone know when the Humber program will end if we start in Jan 2017?

December 2018

Does anyone know if you still have to pay a deposit for the Queen's AST program? I know you have in the past, but my acceptance e-mail didn't mention it.

Are Queen's and UofT the only schools that want your final transcript? (I'm surprised to see how many people have already been accepted by Queen's when they said they're making decisions in March! There are only 47 seats so it looks like they're filling up quickly :( )

They haven't asked me for a deposit either. As it appears on SOLUS, I think we only pay when we register for classes..

Hey ! I was wondering if they put a lot of emphasis on your highschool grades as well for admissions?
