Semester one: Clinical x 2 days a week, doesn't start right away, more like at the end of the month or beginning of next month. Expect to have class each day for the rest of the week, some running into late into the evenings. Semester One: January - April Semester Two: May - August

This is too bad. Applicants will be applying to other schools thus making admission much more competitive at surrounding Colleges in the region. I hope they resolve the issues :)

I don't think it will give me a huge leg up, however some job postings do says it's an asset so, I hope it benefits me when I do apply for jobs.

Hello, I am very interested in applying to Centennial when I finish my program. Just curious about the school in general, with professors and the facility. Is it very independent or professors are there to teach everything during the classes? Do students have the options in different parts of the GTA for clinical placements? Lets say, Etobicoke? Does the school partner with very good facilities in the region? Lastly, how is the job prospects? I know the situation isn't good but, I wonder how difficult it is to find full-time work? I'm learning French so I hope it gives me points when I finally move out there :/ Thanks the Magnificent for helping us :)

Try, and let us know if you get accepted or not.

Try Ottawa U - Algonquin bridging program.

I recommend getting a tutor and see them at least weekly with questions prepared. Since you never took any sciences, you need to spend much of your time studying and organizing your time wisely. Please don't go into Nursing just for the money, if you end up not liking it, you will have a miserable time as the program is tough and requires a lot of time and patience. I believe that pre-health will prepare you for the Nursing program better than high school courses. Since you need only English in order to get accepted into Loyalist, I wouldn't worry too much about "failing". You will have classmates in the same situation as you.

I started this week actually. The program is very very tough and I'm enjoying every minute of it so far.

Try Lambton College/University of Windsor.

I got in with a very bad math grade, everything thing else was over 80%.

Thank you.

Thank you for the advice, I'm almost done my immunizations. I'm glad that the college left the forms on their website, as I haven't received any information from them yet. I've a few questions if you don't mind. Is it possible to fast-track through the program instead of taking a break in the fall? When does placement start during the first semester? Do we get to choose where? Do you have any advice for the first semester? I have no idea what to expect, besides being told that Nursing school is difficult in general. I plan to spend much of my time studying in order to maintain high grades.

I plan to wear mine like that ^ OP, it's completely up to you at the end of the day.

Got in for January. My first choice! Wondering what should I do to prepare. Very excited.

Check their website.

I only received the welcome package too Bmanu. Join the facebook group, as it's very active and informative. You can ask other student questions, and buy txtbooks. I'm about to decline my Centennial offer soon, and take another offer at another school. Good luck.

Bump, accepted my flex offer for 2017w. I'm wondering when placements start and how does the timetable looks like?

Hi BNursing3, I received an acceptance last week for jan17 flex too :) , and confirmed my offer over the weekend. When I called Centennial they said that the welcome page will come in the mail, usually within a week or two after confirmation.

For those of you that got into Mohawk or Conestoga, what were your grades like? I'm sitting at 86% for Biology & 81% English. I'm upgrading Math right now (previously received 65%) and currently have 85% Chemistry grade (midterm). I re-applied for 2017 Jan.

Yes, some physics questions are involved. If you took Physics you shouldn't have any trouble. I never took physics so I couldn't study for that part.

Check out this page: Sample Questions - Test Centre I found this really helpful for the test. The practice questions are similar to the ones on the test. Keep your Biology and Chemistry notes and look them over. The essay and reading comprehension parts are simple, easiest part of the exam. The essay part is timed btw.

You will need an average of 85 or higher to get a guaranteed acceptance into Algonquin. Good luck.

Hi Ashfornursing, I'm happy to see your response as there is nothing online about this particular campus. I was shocked when I found it was in a mall, I'm think twice about going to this school because of that lol. I am wondering if placements are in the City of Toronto, and if you had any trouble getting the placements you wanted? How is life after graduation, were you able to find a job after graduation? Thank you, about the heads up regarding consolidation being at King campus, that is unfortunate to hear.
