Does anyone know what happens if the mandatory orientation for UVic is missed in June? I already have prior commitments 🤯

Finally set up my netlink ID to check my application. My status says "Recommended by Department" as well. Does this mean I have been accepted? I applied for the post Masters stream too.

Does anyone know if the UVic NP Program's practicum placements are primarily on Vancouver Island?

Hello all, I have nervously read your posts for weeks and decided to finally post since my nerves are getting the best of me. I applied to UVic two days before the deadline (I was undecided about NP, but finally gathered the courage to apply) an...

Hello future nurses, I am so excited to be starting nursing at BCIT in August! For future applicants: To have a strong application make sure you have work experience, volunteer experience (preferably healthcare), as well as liberal arts courses - my ...

This is the number in the BCIT directory.

By the way, for those who have yet to book their Respirator Fit Testing: BCIT has dates on July 17th, 19th and August 2nd!

I am starting to get annoyed as well because it seems like everything is going to be very last minute! I want to get everything prepared beforehand .

Hey everyone! I hope the wait isn't TOO tormenting and that all goes well! I am currently struggling in finding places where I can receive my CPR Health Care Providers (HCP) certificate (preferably in or near Surrey). Can anyone please provide any ...

Hi Taylar, Libs 7001 and 7002 are courses that are mandatory for all BCIT degrees. I am starting Nursing at BCIT in August, but have not completed those yet, so they're not exactly pre-reqs - just strengthen your application!

Cat5, thank you VERY much for your opinion. You've helped me make my decision easier.

Ace123, thanks for the advice! I just don't know how difficult they are or what to expect. As of right now, I'm learning towards taking time off

Wow, so different!

I am in need of some advice. I am finishing up at SFU in April and then starting Nursing in August. However, I have not completed my LIBS 7001 or LIBS 7002 courses yet and I kind of feel burnt out from this semester of school. I can't decide if I s...

By the way, congrats to all of you for making it past the first step!

Hey everyone! I deferred to the August intake and I was wondering what this questionnaire is? I don't recall doing it at all!

Good luck everyone!!!!

Hi Cat5, I got special status on the wait list on my first try and deferred to the August 2013 semester (which was my plan anyways) since those on the special status are guaranteed admission for the next intake. I was SO nervous as well because I app...

The document deadline is actually January 31st. I was told via e-mail when I was inquiring for you all :). Good luck everyone!

lnguyen, I sent my resume, highschool transcripts, and post-secondary transcripts together by mail. BCIT only accepts transcripts mailed directly to them (as I was told via e-mail when I was confused as well). Good luck!!

SFU is on a 4.33 scale though, I don't know what scale BCIT uses!

Hi, I can't remember my exact GPA at the time of applying, but I'm assuming it was around 2.8 at SFU. I did show a lot of improvement after my 2nd year though (my first two years were HORRIBLE, my GPA is still suffering from them), my grades ranged f...

I didn't ask an advisor about it, but those who were really close to making the cut are wait-listed with good standing and are guaranteed a spot next intake if they do not get a spot in the intake they applied for. Also, some people that have been a...

Hey everyone, I started a "BCIT August 2013 applicants" forum. It was my first time applying to BCIT as well, I had over 200+ volunteer hours at Surrey Memorial hospital, plus more volunteer and leadership work (which I included in my resume), applie...
