Recently I discovered that the Vancouver Sun publishes the names, employers, and titles of all the employees working in public sectors being paid over 75,000 a year. I was shocked to see that the top earning nurses are making upwards of 180000 a...

One of the other threads about scheduling piqued my interest. I understand every hospital is different and everyone has different schedules but I wanted to see what kind of variation one could expect. So....RNs: Are you guys... full time part time ca...

I know for sure because I've done all the paperwork already, and was told by *****, the program assistant that I'm all set. You have to write a deferral letter explaining your reasons to *****, the program coordinator. I emailed mine to *****, and ...

Thanks :) And you the UBC-O one! They're nicer than I thought since they said I could finish my degree and start the year after.

I'm just waiting for my deferral instruction package. I'm pretty sure once I get the instructions the first person on the waitlist is going to get an offer.

I'm not sure about UBC-O or the RN program, but it costs me at least 7k a year here in Vancouver at UBC Point Grey. My tuition every year just for regular classes 10 courses a year, is about 5800-5900 plus books and random fees here and there. So I ...

That was easy...deferral granted I guess I'm starting this program in 2013!

I don't think it's alphabetical because my last name starts with W.

Got my acceptance email. I need to ask the student advisor for a possible deferral to next year though, although I doubt they'll agree. We'll see how this goes.

I was just wondering if they're waiting for the Bio 153 grades for UBC people, that's all.

They wouldn't wait until June 15...... the marks for the winter session counts only. You can't do the summer session Bio 153 for entry into nursing in September. Everyone has finished the finals for Bio 153 more than 2 weeks ago, marks are supposed ...

Hmm....I get the feeling that admissions won't be offered until Bio 153 marks are out because for the people that have applied and are in the process of completing Bio 153, they can't make offers to them unless they pass Bio 153. Since marks aren't ...

I believe if it hasn't changed from 2 years ago, it was 10ish people..

It's 2-3 weeks from the last day of interviews. They have to evaluate everyone before deciding.

I do agree 2 of the interviewers in my group didn't say anything or even introduce themselves. Didn't really feel like that was appropriate, at least say hi to the people being interviewed.... Also considering that we were told the interviewers wou...

I thought it was a lot of fun. Definitely entertained me for 2 hours.

A friend of mine did say that her friend last year didn't get an interview offer until late towards the first week of april and that she was shocked people were getting interview offers so early this year so relax, I'm sure they're still sending emai...

Did anyone manage to confirm if it's 180 or 200 people being interviewed? Also I was looking at the schedule thing that UBC put up. I don't really get it, does that mean we get a small break (2 weeksish) between every term?? Or do we have exams dur...

Well some people are almost certain that they are going to get into another program but haven't gotten the final OK yet so they can't toss this application just in case somehow they don't get into the other program that they want more??

I have decided to go and take the interview to see if I am actually good enough to be accepted. Then I will make a decision from there. I will try to make my decision as quickly as possible if I get an offer so people that are short listed can move...

I got an interview today for Friday the 20th. This is really screwing me up because I was sure I wouldn't get in so I can finish my BA then do my MA. But now I have an interview and it's so hard for me to say no because it's definitely a good caree...

The course is tough, but from what I hear, many courses are along the same lines and taught a a similar level as Bio 153 in the UBC nursing program. I highly recommend finding a study buddy or study group as well so you can study with others and th...

They didn't specifically say but I don't think they really care. As long as you have enough credits to be looked at and they look at your grade in the last 30 credits. However, just know that the course load for nursing is quite heavy. I've been h...

They need your final transcripts again to see what grades you've gotten but most importantly for people still doing their pre-requisites during the year that they apply, to see if people successfully finished their pre-reqs. Otherwise I'm pretty sur...

Thanks for the info :) Do you know how many people were admitted in your year (and how many applied)? From the last few years I hear 120 in some years and 90 in other years so I'm a little confused.
