You would require an 80% average, and they have specific courses that require a 75% minimum grade (i think the sciences and writing). It's very attainable if you dedicate yourself to the program

Hey, I can't remember what it was about, but I think they give you a few options to choose from. Nothing difficult

I did mine at Malton Village in Etobicoke (right by humber). My instructor was amazing, I really enjoyed working with her, and the faciviity was pretty good too

Almost done my 3rd semester :) The competition to get into both programs aren't bad if you go through the general arts and science. Everyone who met the criteria (grades) got in. If you don't go straight into rn, it'll take you an extra year though because rpn is 2 years and the bridge program is 3. So, it depends on how much time you can spend in school.

This semester is definitely too much memorizing! but it's almost over. yay! do you wanna do rpn or rn?

Last year was pretty good. The work was manageable. This semester......is insanely busy

yes i used a calculator. At first, I thought you were talking about the math course in the general arts program, not the test to get into it. But either way, I used a calculator for both

Yes, you can use a calculator in the math tests. I'm not sure about the practical program, but this year is the first year we are able to use calculators for the bachelor program.

I, like Galipemi, am going into my 2nd year. I've had a pretty good experience overall. The one thing I found during the year is that *sometimes* when I've e-mailed faculty, I get a really delayed reply, or not a reply at all. Good luck with your first year!

It is true that it may be a bit more of a challenge if you have english as a second language, but Humber has a writing centre that can help with editing papers and assist with any challenges you have with writing.

As long as i get to be a RN, I'm happy with a BN. I don't think not have a bsc would impact you negatively, you can still do post grad programs and everything i've heard the same about GB. if you fail one class at humber you can do that one class, but have to wait a year until you can do it. we only have one stream- no summer classes or anything.

I know people who did it else where without a problem. If you're worried, you can e-mail the co-ordinator and ask about the company you're doing it from

Hey! I'm not in my first year. I'll tell you my opinion so far 1) 1st semester= Nursing as a profession, Professional relationships, Psychology, and Anatomy/Physiology (I got exempted from english) 2nd semester= Lifespan development, Anatomy/Physiology, Nursing & Wellness, Nursing & Wellness clinical (I got exempted from an elective) The passing grade for the courses is 60%. For clinical, it is pass/fail 2) For the most part, the professors are pretty good. I had one for my profession class last semester who was awful! I think you will find that everywhere though. 3) Library......sometimes it can be tough finding a spot. There is lots of room, but lots of students! During midterms and exams are especially busy. 4) I like the campus for the most part. My tip is buy a parking pass! If you pay daily, it is sooooooooooooo annoying.

Yes, you're right. I believe the min average for Seneca is 75%, so as long as you get that, you're basically guaranteed acceptance into the program. Also, as I mentioned, the schools want to keep you as their students. They have more commitment to you as a pre-health student, than a highschool student.

Well, it depends on how many courses youd have to take. For me, I had been out of highschool for awhile and would have had to take 6 or 8 courses, which would have been quite a bit. I tried doing some online courses, but I had a really hard time with it. At humber if we do the pre-health and do well, we get exempted from 3 courses throughout the degree, which is amazing! Unfortunately, Seneca doesn't have that. I REALLY enjoyed my pre-health program a lot. I'd have to say it was one of my favorite years of school I've ever had. Plus, as I mentioned, they will get you prepared for the program for sure! It will be very beneficial. The good thing about doing the highschool route is that you can apply to more than one program, which increases your chance of acceptance.

I'm at Humber, and we have quite a few international students. Ask the collages what their requirements are. Some schools have pre-health programs to do if your previous courses aren't accepted for requirements. I did the General Arts and Science (pre- health) at Humber and it is a great program

I have a friend who did the Pre-health at Seneca, and he is currently in his 3rd year at York! He says he really enjoyed the pre-health year and encouraged me to apply. I ended up doing it at Humber because it was a much closer campus, and I had a great experience with it as well. Now I'm in 1st year RN at Humber. I wouldn't worry too much about the grades. Really, if you can't maintain the required average, then you shouldn't do the RN program anyway. Plus, the school WANTS you to get in to their program. You'll already be a Seneca student, and they want Seneca students to succeed. From my experience, most professors are happy to help if you have trouble with a subject. The one thing I would suggest is to STAY ON TOP OF YOUR WORK. In pre-health programs, there are many people who didn't do well in highschool and don't do well in pre-health either. Find friends who are hard workers and study with them. Don't get distracted by those who skip class all the time. The good thing about pre-health is that by the time you get into the RN program, you'll be ahead of the pack. They will prepare you very well Good luck!

Hey Kate! I'll be going to Humber for the BN next year and was wondering if you were able to find time to work part-time? I'm trying to figure out realistic hours to tell my work without running myself into the ground. Thanks!

I know someone in the program, and she said it's been extremely rough! Good luck :)

Thanks! I'm really excited to start in September. The last semester was pretty good. I found it easier than the 1st just because I was already organized and in a routine. However, I had already studied Anatomy & Physiology, so it helped out. In first semester, you will just have Chemistry, but second is A&P and Biology, so it can be a bit more difficult. My second semester average was 93%. From what I heard, they did accept one girl who had a mark below what they said they would accept though. I think you'll really enjoy it! Just work hard and you'll make it.

oh that sucks! I hope you find out soon. When I got my acceptance, I had to confirm by May 21st, so maybe some people won't confirm and they'll send out more acceptances. I hope I see you in September!

If you can read on the bus, I think it'd be fine to go the distance

I am turning 25 on Saturday, and I just finished the pre-health program at Humber and got accepted to the RN program. I'll be 29 when I graduate. Because of school, my boyfriend and I have been renovating my Mom's basement into an apartment for us. I finished a 2 year program to become a massage therapist, which turned out not to be a great career, so I'm already in debt! Don't get discouraged! You can do it, and you'll be happy when you're done!

Yes, Galipemi is right. It is equivalent. Humber's degree is actually from New Brunswick, and in NB they are referred to as a BN instead of a BscN. Just a simple name difference

Thanks!!!! Haha I know! I'm sooooooooooo excited. I can't wait!
