Out of curiosity, to those of you who got invites, what grades did you apply with? Were they all straight As?

Yes, I got an invite at around 11:30 this morning (I was one of the later ones, I think). Congrats to everyone who got invites! To the rest of you, don't stress, I'm sure they will still be sending more out by the end of the day. Good luck!

I am sure they will send more emails tomorrow, don't worry! And yes, the information session will be online next Monday, October 5th from 4-6 pm. The interview session will also be online and will be held on October 30th from 9-10 am. Hope that answers some of your questions

I only got the email 15 minutes ago so they are probably still sending them out! Don't worry!

Hey guys, I just received an invitation for the information session! Anyone else?! ?

Hi all, I'm a prospective student looking to apply to Langara's BSN program for one of the upcoming intakes. Could anyone tell me what letter grade to percentage chart Langara uses for the pre-req GPA calculations? For instance, what percentage ranges qualify as an A+, A, A-, B+, etc.? Any insight on this would be appreciated!

I think they may just not have updated it on your application checklist yet. As long as your transcripts/documents have already been sent in, I wouldn't worry. I know my post secondary transcripts were showing as "in-progress" for the longest time (around 2 weeks) before they were shown as "met."

Yes, you're absolutely right about that. There's nothing we can do now but wait and hope for the best, and hope that we do well in the next stages. Best of luck to you!

Hi @KelseyR, Thank you for sharing your experience. Do you know if any of the other applicants in the intakes you applied for were accepted with a B? You're right about there being other ways to boost our score (references, essay, interview), so I'm really hoping my 1 B doesn't bring me down... As far as the essay/interview goes, are you able to shed any light on the nature of the questions asked? From what I understand, the interview asks more general "job interview" type questions, but what is the essay prompt like? Is it a nursing related question? Thanks again for sharing your experience! All the best to you and your future education/career goals!

If I remember correctly, you're also applying with 3As and 1B? I hope both of us still have a chance! I was retaking my English 12 from an online school in Surrey.

Hi everyone, I just found out today that the rest of my English 12 course won't be marked until September. Meaning that I will be applying for the January 2021 intake with a 'B' in English. While I have As in the other 3 pre-reqs, I'm a bit frustrated because my instructor didn't bother mentioning until today that I wouldn't be receiving a final grade for the course until September. I'm just really hoping I still have a fair shot at this intake with my 3 As and 1 B. ?

Hi @Plumeria21, You can definitely submit more than 2 references. It doesn't mention anywhere on the website a minimum/maximum number of references - I sent in 3. You should be fine with 2, but I don't think there's any harm in sending 1 or 2 more if that's what you want!

Hi Rupali, I wouldn't worry too much about your B grade. There were many people in the last intake who got accepted with one B. As long as you have As in the other 3 pre-reqs, you should be good!

Hey guys, Hope all of you are doing well and making progress with your applications. I'm just finishing up my English 12 online. I got all As in Biology 12, Chemistry 11, and Math 11. Best of luck everyone, you can do it!

Hi Caroline, I initially applied for the September 2020 intake, but unfortunately I wasn't able to finish my pre-reqs on time so my application wasn't complete.
