Hi everyone! Wanted to ask for advice and maybe some info! My husband is going to transfer to US with L1 visa. Me as his spouse will hold a L2 visa. I am now in nursing school getting my RPN. I am thinking what would be the best move for me? 1. Am I eligible to work in California with canadian license? I will have SSN 2. Will it be better to get my bachelor's degree in California? Like through a bridging program if there are any? Like LVN to RN? Maybe other options or suggestions? We are quite flexible with timing, but prefer to move within the next 2-3 years, so I won't be able to get my RN here in Canada (as I initially planned) Thank you!

Hi Batra! Sure we can stay connected! I am in week 6 now, so fascinating!:) I am in RPN now but will go to the bridging after, for RN

Happy new year everyone! I am wondering who is going to start next week at GBC? Are you excited?:) How do you feel that our "hybrid" model is all online including clinicals and labs? ? It would be great to know each other!

Thanks! My top 4 are 93% average, now so am not even sure that it's good enough... Otherwise, they would have sent me my offer, I guess. Waiting is the worst!

I am still waiting ? I applied relatively early - in November, and nothing so far. Though I am checking Ryerson thread in Reddit, and a bunch of people have had their offers already.

EV1518, I guess that would be my case! The same thing with prerequisites... So far, could you tell pls how much time a day you spend AFTER classes? I am still anxious about juggling my RN school, kids, and house chores ?

Those are exactly my thoughts! Everyone keeps saying how hard it is! I already have a PhD in another area and hopefully will be accepted at BcSN. Having a teenager and a preschooler with lots of chores to do, I am a bit nervous how it is going to be. Just in case, I study A&P (YouTube lectures, Khan Academy, coloring book and flash cards on Anki), after that in my plan is patho and pharm. Also, I watched different tips how to study different courses. I am pretty sure I will be fine. P S hypnobirthing didn't work for me at all ??‍♀️?

Hi there! At some point I was thinking of taking this program myself but decided to take online ILC courses. I am glad I did. I ended up with 90%, 91%, 94%, and 94%. You do all the assignments at home and submit online, you need to show up on the final 2-hour exam only. And that is cheap! Hope that can help!

Hi guys! Could anyone help me out here, please? A have a million questions ??‍♀️? I applied to GBC RN program as a mature student. What are my chances do you think? I have 90% in math, 94% in chem and the same in bio, and 91 in eng. All courses from ILC. As far as I know, liberal electives are on St. James campus, right? What can you say about courses you chose? Do you have any advice here? How soon after accepting your offer, you registered for the courses? It is very important for me to have a convenient schedule, as I have a little kid at JK... What was your schedule at 1 and 2 semesters? What can I learn in advance? I started with anatomy, but maybe there is something more? Everyone says that these programs are very challenging, but could you be more specific and tell how much time you spend studying at home? Just trying to figure out will I have time for light housekeeping and kids, or it is better to hire someone to help... For those with kids, how was it for you? Doable? Thank you so much for you time and help!
