Hi, I will be applying for Sept 2014 as well. I applied a few years ago and got an interview however declined because I decided to do my MSc at the time. I wanted to go through with academics but have realized it is not for me so back to square one for me! I had a 78% average in my BSc (Hons) in biochemistry. I volunteered for some groups on campus, vice president of the yoga club on campus and some hospital volunteering. I think as long as your supplemental application is strong you can get an interview so put lots of time and effort in that! I have a question for current students: I heard there is a study break in August during the program. When exactly was that break for the 2013 class? Good luck everyone!

I have one thats a work supervisor and the other was the advisor for a club I volunteered for at University. I hope thats ok.

Just going to submit my application sometime this week. I'm having a hard time filling out the membership of different organizations. I was apart of lots of clubs in highschool/university (within the last 5 years) but I expanded on those in the other parts of the application so I don't now if I should just restate the names of the clubs? Grrrr!! I've also applied to BCIT. I really really really hope to get into one of the programs, otherwise I'm applying to U of A and U of C for Jan 2012 and just go travel this september since I have NOTHING else to do! It's going to be a long wait! Arrgh. Good luck everyone!

Sounds like a good fit for you. That is a lot of money, I've never heard of LPN costing that much, at least in BC. I have a lot of friends that have finished their LPN in the Lower Mainland, BC and the general consensus was it's hard to find a job if you don't have an "in" at a facility already. I think lots of things are changing though, I heard LPN's are being give more responsibilities, practically replacing RN's in some cases. This is for BC though...don't know how it differs in AB. Good luck to you though! Good on your part to take some initiative!

I just finished my application for Aug 2011. I applied 2 years ago but BCIT had lost my application. I was in the midst of doing my BSc at the time so I just let it go but now I wish I had put up a fight. All that money and time gone to waste! I had applied at that time as a means to move back to Burnaby so didn't take it too seriously. I remember that I called in really late (in late April) and they apologized and told me they would do a file review. I got a call the day after saying I got shortlisted, even though I know they had already made their final decisions (because a friend of mine had received a rejection letter) I had at that time, 2 years worth of Science credits with an A GPA but they said that I didn't make the cut because I didn't have intro to psych. I was really angry because I had taken an upper level psych credit and I had a good GPA. Anyways make sure you stay on top of this and call in to see if your application is received. I don't know what they will say now because I've completed my BSc but still haven't taken intro psych. I have taken some religious studies classes and anatomy/physiology. since my last application and have done a lot of volunteering since. I have no idea where I stand though!
