   I did the first aid when it was offered at Douglas College last semester. Maybe they'll do it again? It was pretty cheap, too.

   I'll be coming from New West by bus, still takes an hour or more. But, I'll see you all in January!

   My deadline for paperwork was July 25th or something. I'm in the diploma program.

   I have to get a lot of shots, even though I already had a lot of them in 2010 when I worked in the hospital. Sigh... I'll have to pay for them at a travel clinic too, so more $$$$.

   There was no mention of first aid in the paperwork that was sent to me, so I am waiting. It's bad enough I have to pay for a doctor's visit for paperwork, and pay for vaccinations from the travel clinic because the earliest public health nurse appoin...

   I had 17 points, so pretty high. How many do you have? They sent me the paperwork but now I only have until July 24th to pay $350 down, have a doctors exam, and my immunization record, and a criminal record check. They don't give you much time!

   I picked diploma so I could get right into PNUR courses. I am hopeful that I can switch to the degree program for 2nd year, but even if not, I can do the degree completion pretty quickly after graduation. Anyone else getting into the diploma program...

   I got offered a seat in either the degree or the diploma program, now I have to decide which I want. Agh. :S

    Yeah, I've taken A&P and University Writing. Second semester would be the same. Hopefully means a cheaper first year for me. :)

    Tell me how it goes.. Especially about the A&P if you are at a C too. I'm curious as to the program costs also. The admissions advisors only say that it's $40,000 for the 4 years. I would like to know how much I have to save up for the first year...

    If my Microbiology course that I got a B in counts for my Bio course for admission, the program continuance requirements only say that a cumulative GPA of 2.33 is required, with a grade no lower than a C in all required coursework. KPU 2014-15 Univer...

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in CA Programs

    If you have completed the first year of the diploma program, then you are farther advanced than second year students of the degree program. The first year of the degree program is almost entirely university courses, and no PNUR courses. The first yea...

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in CA Programs

    That isn't true. There is a form that you can fill out during your second semester of the diploma program, but it MUST be done before your second year if you want to get the degree at the end instead of the diploma. They save you spots in two classes...

    I just applied, though I don't really know what to expect. My University GPA should be around 3.55, which is unfortunately because of A&P. Without that, my GPA was 3.7 :) Amazing what a C can do to a good GPA. I'm hopeful that it is enough. Do th...
