thanks for the info guys! :)

hey, ive gone through the process of submitting applications for different schools. this year applied to UT, ryerson, and YorkU. it was my second try for UT, i thought my avg was high enough so i gave it a try...but apparently not. lol i had a 3.4 and some volunteer experiences, but i think my application wasnt strong enough. UofT mainly look for people with an undergrad, strong references, and well as solid grades. if you hold an undergrad, and you have an A, chances are you would get accepted. but really, how many non-arts people graduate from UT with an A? lol as for ryerson's 4-yr program, i think you would get in even with your low gpa. specially since youre a degree holder..it would probably be your best shot. york requires a minimum of B- (i think). although your gpa might be a little too low, i think you should give york a shot. i know some people who had low GPAs but still got in the program. i actually end up choosing york and can't wait to get started. i should warn you though, yorku's admin isn't the best. you might also want to apply to seneca-york program. i believe there's two options you can take: seneca at keele and seneca at king...either way, its a four year program where you spend your last two years at york. good luck on your application process!

im entering my first year in a second entry program, and i was just wondering what steps should i take in order to become a nurse educator. is it just masters i need or will i need further education? thanks :)

well, youre in a better position than i am lol. im just finishing up my third year with a 3.4/4 GPA from my last 5 credits. that probably wont be enough to get me in though. i guess its worth the try. if UT does not accept me, i will be transferring to york next september for their 2nd entry program. i cant wait to get started! :)

thanks for the info rhymeswithlibrarian. i think the entrance deposit is now 500, but im not quiet sure.

lol i probably wont be part of that. people with degree will get it first. are you a degree holder Katt?

thanks berkeleycrammer! thats awfully late...im worried now lol

HAAHAHAHA! congrats though! fight isnt over until a rejection comes so no worries

anyone heard anything yet?

congrats rinks! see if you could talk to people who's been in the program and maybe you can compare :)

congrats and good luck nicole!

hahaha i guess as long as you become what you want to be at the end, it's all good right? dont worry too much, im sure ryerson will take you! :) keep me updated on how things goes for you! good luck!:redpinkhe

Hey Trulibra! I dont like this waiting game either! Where else did you apply? I hope we both get a spot at UT

Has anyone heard from University of Toronto yet?

hello jerep, i applied to ryerson's 4 year program, but i havent heard anything from them as of yet. i dont think they've started reviewing applications. but im sure its coming soon!

Congrats guvner and mia!

congrats!

CONGRATS Trulibra!

thank you for sharing your opinions/experiences! :) im just wondering, does the high failure rate also apply to the 2nd entry students? i will be doing the accelerated program at york.

hey guys, i just got my acceptance from yorkU, and i just have a few questions about the program: - how intense was the program? - how were the professors? - how much independence do RNs give you in clinicals? - what should i be expecting? any opinions and comments would be much appreciated! thanks! FN

HEY GUYS! i just received my yorkU acceptance today. i had a GPA of 3.47/4 for my last 5 credits good luck to those who are still waiting!

Congrats guys! Im still waiting replies from YorkU (2nd Entry), UT(2nd Entry), and Ryerson. This long wait is killing meeeeeeeee!

Anyone have gotten acceptances yet?

Malenurse82, Thanks for the reply! Yeah, GPA out of 4. That makes me feel a lot better :) I'm glad you enjoyed the program. I can't wait to start :)! I hear it's intense (as any other Nursing programs), but I'm sure it'll be awesome at the same time. I applied through OUAC the first day it became available. I also received an email from a Credential Analysist the other day and I believe they're gone through a preliminary review (I'm taking this as a good sign..lol). Anyways, thanks for everything! And I'm sure I'll enjoy the program as much as you did :) FN89

Hey everyone, Anyone know how many applicants YorkU accept each year? I understand there's no set amount as it varies each year, but can somebody give me the typical range? Also, for those who were accepted in previous years, (if you dont mind me asking)what was your GPA? I'm currently standing with a 3.4 GPA, and I just want to know if I have a good chance of getting in. Thanks!:heartbeat
