Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2017)

Published

Hey everyone :)

So fall just flew in so I thought what a great time it would be to start my nursing applications lol. It is very early, but I enjoy having this on my mind. I am in my final year at University and am hoping to be a nursing student come next September. I wanted to make a space where we could come together with a common goal: getting accepted. The schools I plan to apply are:

Trent, Toronto, Humber, Western and Queens

Possibly considering RPN programs as well.

Got my Western acceptance on March 1st!

Pardon me if I am wrong, but I don't think the number of times you check your status has any effect on how sooner your status change..

I didn't check my status at all and I just received an email saying I've gotten a letter (acceptance letter) in my Western account.

So you don't have to continuously refresh your page every second ;)

As for my GPA, I believe my last two years of GPA is around 3.96 out of 4.3 scale. I'm not sure what that will convert to in a 4.0 scale..

Good luck everybody!!

Haha we were totally being sarcastic about the application checking thing. Of course it doesnt have an effect on it!! ;)

At least I was joking! Not sure if the other person was lol

was definitely joking about frequent checking of application status...I'll add some sort of 'sarcasm' tag in my future (and admittedly lame) jokes!

Did anyone write the Casper test in January, and your schools show its been received ?

For those of you curious about Casper. I applied to UBC (Vancouver and Okanagan), I'm still waiting on Vancouver but I got into Okanagan 3rd year so I'm guessing they got my Casper results. However none of the schools in Ontario have updated my profile to say they got my results yet.

When did you submit your application for Western CTF Nursing?

Anyone heard back from Nipissing regarding the interview?

Hi, I spoke to Nipissing today and because the CASPER results have not been sent into schools yet, there may be some delay in sending out dates for interviews. I'm also assuming that other schools that consider CASPER will also be affected if the scores are received late! Hope this helps :)

I also was accepted at Queen's AST program in Early February! :)

I did mine in January but haven't heard anything about it. Hopefully they've received them by now!

I spoke with a school that requires CASPER, and wrote mine in Janurary, and they haven't received them yet. They are hoping they come in the next week, I'm assuming there was some sort of delay, since CASPER usually has a 2-3 week turn around from what I have read/heard.
