   Congrats to everyone who got in so far!! To those still waiting by now, I'd personally say stick by your backup plans but keep hoping for the positive ? You will all get there in time. Was accepted in May 2019 and finished just last month!...

   Course work wasn’t too bad! Of course, it’s all really overwhelmingly new in Term 1 since you’re learning how to think, act, and respond as a nurse. I didn’t yet know how to study in Term 1, and it ended up taking all my time; I had a less than ideal...

   Thanks so much! With COVID we thought it would be super rough, but we all came out unscathed, thankfully. Yeah, I plan to start studying for the NCLEX in a month or so. We can apply to jobs right out the gate — BCCNM (our RN licensing body) offe...

   Still in session, but online! Tbh, it's really stressful -- UBC Nursing is scrambling to solidify their decisions and it makes us anxious; waiting for more updates gets annoying sometimes. I much more prefer in-person exams, clinicals and labs -- exa...

   mb96 replied to bbbeee's topic in CA Programs

   @bbbeee So far, Nursing isn't anticipating delayed grad (hopefully not) - Term 3 is supposed to start on April 27th. UBC moved to online courses, so theory will most likely be online in the Summer with labs and clinicals in-person, although again the...

   mb96 replied to bbbeee's topic in CA Programs

   Good luck everyone on your admissions!! To be honest COVID has put a dampener on our studies right now. In-person clinicals and labs were cancelled until further notice since Monday this week, which makes our workload heavier than usual -- more tasks...

   @Kathleen L ^^Seconded! I'm in the lower cohort (admitted summer 2019, Class of 2021) and Term 1 is VERY busy!! Term 2, which we're 1/4 of the way through, is very flexible since the workload is lighter/you have more free time, and most people take o...

   Hi @bbbeee! Sorry for not seeing this message earlier -- Nursing school is busy!! But don't be nervous ❤️ I know the application process seems daunting! Sadly, I have no idea what my admission GPA was since it's most likely calculated differently by ...

    Ahah I know ? the schedule makes it looks scary! The labs are supposed to be 2 hours in a day — it just depends on the timeslot we get. Once clinical starts we only get 1 day of labs and are only on campus for 2.5 days per week, phew.

    Haha that's true. I live in North Vancouver so my commute and driving times aren't so long at all. You'll find a way to transit from far-away places! Carpooling is an option ?

    Oh that's super cool -- what an admirable profession! Yeah, it's honestly up to you. It sounds like a hard career decision/switch between two interests! I hope you can figure it out soon. I'd love to work in pediatrics or mental health as well!

    You're able to defer! @Kathleen L I think a few students who deferred their admission last year are attending Nursing this year ? I'm 10% wondering if I should defer mine as well, even though I completed the BLS, Mask Fit, signing forms etc requireme...
