I’m in first year at uoft and didn’t get my acceptance until April 15! It will come but it may be a bit of a wait. For reference, the rejection emails got sent out first followed by those who got accepted. All within the same day though iirc.

I’m a student nurse in Toronto (Canada). All classes are moving online and just got the news our placements are on hold for the next three weeks. I’m in an accelerated program (2 years for a BScN) so I’m not sure how we’re going to make up the hours....

For reference, uoft sent out first round of acceptances April 15 last year. I’m not sure if the current world situation will slow the process down or not as they are currently trying to figure out the logistics of how we will be taking our exams/test...

I’m sorry this is an incredibly late reply LOL. I basically chose uoft as I grew up here, my family is here and I wanted to spend more time with them as they are aging. I also moved for my first degree so I never got to explore downtown as an adult, ...

Sorry for the late reply! I forgot to check this over the holidays. I highly recommend looking through the last few years of forums. I recall taking one person’s advice about taking experiences and really applying my experience of how that would pert...

Hey! Don’t quote me on this but I think that UofT looks at the whole application as opposed to just grades. I did apply with a 4.0 in my last year so i can’t speak to the whole “grades don’t matter as much” part very well (i did have a 3.3 cgpa thoug...

Hi all! I’m not applying this year but was doing this process last year! I’m currently at UofT for their nursing program so I’d love to give back and help answer any questions you may have. I know applications made me anxious but looking at this foru...

I decided to go to UofT as well instead of UBC so another spot will open up! Breaks my heart esp after seeing ubc’s campus but I plan on pursuing MY MN-NP and hope to do it at UBC! The programs are very similar I’m sure (since both schools hold high ...

Hi all, i recently got accepted to both uoft and ubc. I am originally from toronto but have been living in vancouver since september, and on/off since 2016. I’m having an extremely difficult time in making a decision and so i would appreciate any adv...

Pretty sure! They do have a top 10 survey type of thing but i heard that some people didn’t even get into one of their top 10 for some placements. Just really depends on who/what hospital is accepting students at that point and how many.

For ubc clinicals, i heard it’s either wed/thurs (or whatever weekdays) or sat/sun, not both. In addition, i heard from a current student that uoft takes into account where you live/mode of transportation so that you’re not travelling more than an ho...

Just posted this in the ubc allnurses forum but in case there are people here who don’t follow that one but have been accepted to uoft and ubc and are contemplating which one to choose... ”i’ve been accepted to both ubc and uoft, both very comparable...

Hi all, i’ve been accepted to both ubc and uoft, both very comparable schools in terms of academic standing in canada, research opportunities etc. I’ve been living in vancouver since september and off/on for the past few years but originally raised i...

What’s your name? Would love to chat with someone in the same predicament haha

This is what i’m doing right now (uoft vs ubc) as i still haven’t made a decision!

Haha thanks! I guess what really matters is what you take away from your experiences and how you can apply them. I’ve been in customer facing roles for 10 years so it really helps! Lots of transferrable skills for any job. Yeah the scam was something...

Thanks! I had a 90.4 in my last year, which was a 4.33/4.33 gpa i guess? My cgpa was a 3.6/4.33 though LOL. I had no direction all the way up to the end of my first term of third year... didn’t have a plan for a future career and so i didn’t care abo...

I’m sort of in the same boat. I currently reside in vancouver but i’m originally from toronto and have lots of fam there to live with BUT i do have to contemplate the licensing as well. I looked it up and to go from toronto to vancouver licensing i d...

Same! I saved my supp app in a word doc haha

Accepted as well!!!

Haven’t heard anything yet... don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing ?

I’m fortunate enough that my entire family lives in toronto, so i’d be moving back home haha. Not sure how well that’s going to go seeing as i haven’t lived at home for over 5 years!

Thank you!!!! I hope we all get in! ? Everyone has worked so hard and you should all be proud of yourselves, no matter the outcome.

My last 30 credits/10 courses i have a 4.33/4.33 i think? It’s a 90.4 so just made the cutoff according to the arts undergrad gpa conversion chart lol. So i would assume 1? Unless they take into account my prereqs (did poorly in physiology because i ...

Got my acceptance april 15, says june 1st for deposit.
