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:
I just found the Facebook group for U of T and shocked to see there are already 160 members in it Looks like most/all of the spaces have been filled...
Hey ! I am in the UofT group and to clarify there are some second-year students in the group as well! So dont get too discouraged I think there are still spots available since UofT accepts around 175 people :)
was your status like mine prior to your acceptance? if you don't mind me asking, how did you receive the acceptance? and what was your biggest concern with your application and potential reason for delay in your acceptance? any other words of advice? Thank you!
@nurseplanabc Thank you! My status was WA like yours prior to my acceptance, and I found out when I checked my admission status which was changed to "AD (Admitted)" I got an acceptance email a few hours after that. Before my acceptance I was worried that I didn't do well on the Casper test since there were people with similar averages as mine that got accepted first. So I'm not sure how they're evaluating us, but you should get an answer soon if your average is at least around 78+!
Does anyone know if U of T performs grade conversions on final transcripts? I'm worried my final year of study GPA is too low to satisfy the condition on my acceptance. I have the required average at Queen's University but sometimes schools change that and it becomes lower because Queen's is on the 4.3 scale :/ . I have tried contacting U of T multiple times and have gotten no where, I would hate to accept and find out I couldn't actually be admitted

Hey Seaschel! Uoft does do grade conversions. My school is on a 4.3 gpa scale as well. If you don't mind me asking but what is requirement to maintain your condition? I'm still waiting to hear back but my average is around a 3.5-3.6. But I'm sure it will work out for you :)

It works out to be 3.3 so a B+ on the U of T scale. I have a 3.45 on the 4.3 scale that my school does so technically I have met the requirement, but I'm worried conversions will lower it. I checked the OMSAS scale that the med schools use and I should be okay *I think*, but not having concrete answers is making me go crazy :'(

I wouldn't stress too much over, I'm pre sure you are in the clear :) It would have been helpful if admissions would actually give us the answers we need!
@ruonoh1196 my cumulative average is 78+ and I am worried about my Casper results since my gpa is around the per-requisite and the program is so competitive. the anticipation and potential disappointment is overwhelming! thanks for letting me know your thoughts.
