Barrie Campus

Hi! I was recently accepted into the York/Georgian Collab program, but I have received the most controversial information about the program. 1. First issue: York's Location It's near Jane and Finch! Almost everyone I have talked to has said it's an extremely sketchy area, and my dad said that I'd be going to school and straight back home - no fun:(. I know the campus is safe, but I want to feel safe off campus as well. Not to mention if placements are in the GTA I might not have my car (parents don't want me driving in Toronto traffic) I live a good hour away from Toronto. This is probably the biggest issue that is shying me away. 2. Second issue: the actual program I've heard York's program is more theory based than clinical, and doesn't really prepare you for the nursing world. This is an issue because I am a very hands-on learner, so clinical time is important to me. Right now, this program is a back-up for me because I am so unsure of everything I've heard. Feel free to write back here, or email me at [email protected] (my PM's are disabled) if you have information to share. Thanks in advanced! :)
