Haven't seen a thread yet for the transfer route so I thought that I would start one. I was wondering if anybody has heard anything from the university or had any updates on their online profiles? This is just for any general discussion about the tra...

I would really recommend trying to get some volunteer experience. I know that UBC's application has a very large supplemental portion. As for BCIT if you get shortlisted you to complete a questionnaire where they ask you about your volunteer/life exp...

Hi Aly! Thanks! I just pmed you! :)

I called this morning and someone in admissions said that they are currently admitting at a 3.4 GPA. I was told that out of the 30 seats, they have offered all of 30. They can't guarantee that all of the people who were offered will accept a seat, bu...

Can't wait to meet all of you in January. It's only two months away... which means I need to find a place to live If anyone in this forum knows of anybody in the Burnaby area renting out a room or if anyone here needs a roommate pm me! I'm moving do...

@matchalatte yes please!! It would be great to get that off of the table right away!

When I was at UVic we had the option to opt out of health and dental coverage if we already had coverage through our own insurance, does anyone know if BCIT offers the same option?

How/when do we register for classes?

@lnguyen Everyone may have worked so hard to get an offer but that doesn't mean that this is their only school that they're applying to. I got accepted to BCIT but if my first choice school pulls through then I might be declining... who knows!

Does anyone know when/how we get our immunization record form? Or is it mailed to us with the criminal record check package?-

Also, does anyone know exactly what our cost for tuition is? I can't find somewhere that says the exact amount or is it just right in front of my face and I can't see it?

I got an offer!! Wooooooooooo. Can't wait to meet all of you in January. @caroline1991 I am also applying for student loans. It says in the email that we were sent that you can do a fee deferral. So they will adjust your deadline until your loans com...

I'm hoping that you're right about the alphabetical offers because then there's still a chance!! but my last name also starts with W and that would mean more waiting... boo!

When I looked into it it said that once you have received your acceptance email you scroll to the bottom and there should be a link to the online housing application. I'm not sure how much housing they ahve but I think it said that it was about $560/...

I'm doing transfer route as well. I'm transferring from UVic! They have a 9 point grade scale so my GPA at UVic was a 6.8 (Just below an A- average) and I have a bunch of volunteer work with the hospital and around Victoria (Special Olympics, Relay ...

I think everyone posting on this forum is short-listed right now. Just waiting around to hear something!! Is anyone in this forum applying to other schools? I'm also applying to the U of C January 2014 entry as well.

Hey has anyone heard anything back yet or does everyone's status say "pending department review"?

I would really suggest looking into all of the nursing RN transfer/accelerated programs that you can and adjust your courses for the next semester so that you can try to get the prerequisites done for nursing (such as anatomy and english prerequisite...

Mine says the same thing at the moment. When I called they said that that meant you had been waitlisted. I spoke to someone a few days ago and she said that their cut off GPA probably won't be decided until December, but that they are admitting at a ...

This wait is killing me. Thanks for the update though!

@Caroline1991 I feel the same way!! It seems like it's all going to happen so quickly and that we're kind of kept in the dark about everything until we're accepted. There's some stuff that I would really like to know now! Also, just completed the que...

I was shortlisted for this year and I haven't completed either course yet because I was taking online courses from TRU already over the summer. The admissions office told me that that was alright since you can take them during your studies. I'm takin...

I've talked to a few people at U of C so here's some of the information that I've gathered in case you don't have it already. Offers will begin going out in October (hopefully soon), but depending on where you are in relation to others you may receiv...
