  1. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

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

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

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

  3. Douglas college psychiatric nursing has anyone been accepted yet for 2015

    I got accepted into the January intake of the psych diploma program.

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

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    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

  6. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    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...

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    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...

  8. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    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...

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

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

    Kirota replied to hope4321's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

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

  11. Kwantlen nursing january 2015

    Kirota replied to hope4321's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    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...

    Kirota replied to hope4321's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    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...

  13. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing 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...

  14. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing 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...

  15. Kwantlen nursing january 2015

    Kirota replied to hope4321's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    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...

  16. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    If you have a majority of year one done, then switching from the diploma to the degree program can be viable. Provided the transfer is approved. I asked a while ago, basically you fill out a form,...

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I've heard good and bad about all schools. Never know what to believe. I have a co-worker whose wife is a nurse and works with students who says that Sprott Shaw and UBC turn out the worst nursing...

  18. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Even if I get into the diploma program, I will probably file the paperwork to get the degree instead in second year. I already have a BA, so I have many of the classes completed already. Just hoping...

  19. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I didn't know that they were. I applied to both as well. Cross your fingers.. I hope we'll hear in a month or so. I'm taking some classes this fall, registering for them in a couple weeks. Are you...

  20. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I don't have points posted yet either, but they're still going through my transcripts. Who knows how long it'll take. Don't get discouraged though, I heard there are fewer applicants in general for...

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I talked to the registrars office, and they said: You will not be able to access Biol 2200 (Pathophysiology) unless you are in the Academic Foundations in Nursing Cert. program and I am sorry I do not...

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    At least you got to the interview stage at UBC! Sometimes, things work out in a way that is better for you, even if you don't think it is. 17 people dropping out might seem hard to believe - but life...

  23. Douglas College Psychiatric Nursing 2014

    Kirota replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I'm applying for the January intake. I would rather go into the BSc Nursing, but I just can't wait as long as it would take (I'm no spring chicken). I wonder how long after the deadline that they...

  24. UBC September 2014 Applicants

    Kirota replied to skittles12's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I got my rejection notice too. Despite the fact that I worked on hospital wards as a phlebotomist for 3 years, and worked in a group home setting for disabled adults for 7 years - I just ranked a 3 on...

  25. UBC September 2014 Applicants

    Kirota replied to skittles12's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Got to love the stress of all this.. not. LOL. It looks like the offers were given to people outside of the province (Go Calgary people) possibly first because they have to make travel arrangements...
