Great idea. But isnt each individual course you take at a university around $1000. I remember when looking on the ryerson site to see if i can take individual courses over the summer the cost for each was around that. Thanks to everyone for giving me such helpful responses in here!

Yes, but i applied in January on the last few days before equal consideration date. From what i have heard Ryerson operates under a first come first serve basis, so maybe if i apply come November i will have a much higher shot. I will also apply for other schools such as Brock and York this time. Also i made a mistake on my application and i feel this is the main reason why for waitlist. I'm pretty confident i will enjoy nursing! ^^ and to your previous post what makes me worry is that in my adult school they only let you take 3 classes at a time and i spent a lot of time studying and it was still tough to stay on top of everything with all the homework and 2-3 tests every week. So when i see that george brown has 9 classes a semester and ryerson 6 i kinda wonder how its possible to stay on top of everything for each class and making notes from every textbook. In fairness though in adult schools the course is very condensed and sped up compared to normal high school as they need to fit a 12 week course into 8 weeks, so maybe this is why i sometimes struggled to stay on top of everything

Nope. did high school from 06-11, but only did college level courses (no science courses either) and did terribly in them regardless due to family issues and no motivation. Then for 2017-2019 upgraded in adult school doing uni level courses and the required and got a pretty good average which i feel is good enough to get in. No post secondary. I can wait yes. You make a great point about the rpn program preparing you for the workload in the rn program. Myself, having never done post secondary i am not sure how i will adjjust and the prospect of being overwhelmed does induce a little fear! Like you said i have also heard that getting into the bridging program is extremely competitive and even requires a casper test now. Im still holding out hope i will get off the waitlist for the upcoming year, but i seriously doubt it by now considering its almost july

Hey everyone anyone here get accepted or waitlisted for Ryerson? Currently on the waitlist for Ryerson mainsite and GBC collab. Started to lose hope, but still a little left haha! Got an acceptance for practical nursing at GBC, but i dont think i will take it since my average is already good enough to get into an RN program and i remember reading past threads on here that you need a high gpa to get into the bridging programs.

I am a mature student and was waitlisted at Ryerson, but accepted for the practical nursing program at GBC. Would it be a better option for me to (assuming i dont get off ryerson waitlist) wait a year and reapply for bachelors in nursing or to accept the GBC practical nursing offer. Both options will result in 5 years, so am i better off just re appliyng and taking the year off to work and save more money? Another factor to consider is i have a pretty good average for high school of 95, so i feel as if i have a very good shot of getting in next year provided i apply for many bachelor programs. Where as i have read on here that its very hard to get into a bridging program and it requires a 3.0+ gpa in the practical nursing program to do so. I am not sure of my educational capabilityies in post secondary, so would it be very risky to do practical nursing?
