Same thing I heard. Those seem to be the most popular choices but Conestoga, Fanshawe and Mohawk are all for sure out of commuting range. I didn’t apply to Centennial just because it’s another category 2 program. I only applied to Seneca because that commute is ideal.... I don’t know why Sheridan isn’t that popular...haven’t heard anything good or bad about them. At the end of the day though all that matters is that you pass the registration exam...I’m not entirely convinced which school you go to matters too much...except if you are talking about clinicals. what other program did you accept the offer to?

@dreyy I see. Well you never know. Most people apply to like 5 schools so I feel like you will get an offer, if anything you might just get an offer a little later. I applied late July and I got an offer from all the schools I applied to except GBC. Someone on another thread was saying the cutoff for GBC is around 91% for Jan. I feel like I might have sent my stuff a little too late and that’s why I haven’t heard from them. Tbh after reading about some people’s experience at GBC I’m not sure I even want to go there. I visited Georgian’s campus last year when I was first debating going to college, I inquired about the paramedic program initially and I liked the feel of the college so I’m leaning towards that. Have you thought about upgrading your average by repeating courses? You could use the ILC. If you have some time on your hands between now and May it might not be a bad idea. Myself, I’m thinking of either taking grade 12 physics or Kinesiology just to keep learning as much as I can prior to program start. Either that or getting a hold of some nursing textbooks and get reading.

@dreyy I think 87% is plenty good tbh. Of course it depends who else applied to Sheridan for May 2021. I don’t think it would necessarily be full of people who didn’t get in for Sept/Jan either. Have you applied anywhere else? Ideally I would have loved to go to Humber, but I wasn’t ready to start school in Sept (they don’t have a Jan start) and the commute was just too far me. I also applied to George Brown, Durham and Seneca. Seneca is closest to me but they’re a category 2 school so that made it my last choice.

@dreyy 96% if we are only looking at the 4 pre-requisites (eng, math, chem & bio). 93% if we are looking at best 6 Gr.12 courses Have you applied for Jan 2021 as well? Everyone says Jan start is easier to get in than Sept!

@silk I know this post is from about a year ago...but did you ever make the transition? I’m also a flight attendant, but about to start nursing school!

Hello ! I am brand new on the forum but saw your comment here. May I ask, was it recent that you attended Georgian? Was it the Barrie campus? I got my acceptance for Jan. 2021 start and I’m trying to decide if I should just accept their offer or wait for others...any info you can offer would be much appreciated! ?
