Yep, this is the Winter term after prep: NURS 1121 Introduction to Nursing and Wellness NURS 1131 ASP Helping Relationships NURS 1135 Enhancing Well-Being In Situations of Chronicity NURS 1136 Clinical Practicum: Wellness and Chronicity I attached a brochure showing all the courses for each semester.

No problem! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask ?

It has been very demanding, but manageable. I'd say half is an exaggeration, but I think we started with around 90 students and were down to 60-something at the start of this semester. Some failed out, but some chose to leave for other pursuits. Humber has the highest pass rate on the NCLEX compared to the other bachelors programs (including u of t, york, ryerson, etc.) so I'd say it does a great job at preparing you in that regard. I think nursing programs in general are pretty rigorous, so time management will be important. Adding to that, going through the summers makes it so you don't get a big break like the 4 year programs. It can feel draining at times, but totally worth it.

The second entry has their own curriculum for the first year. It is not until the following fall semester that you join up with the regular program for two semesters (fall and Winter), before separating again in the final Summer.

Hello, I'm entering my final semester in the program, before consolidation semester. After the prep semester, you are still in the same cohort with fellow second entry students (separate classes from the 3rd years). It isn't until fall of the next year that the second entry cohort joins up with 3rd year students for two semesters, before separating again. If you have any other questions feel free to ask!

Has anyone heard from York second entry?

Does anyone know anybody in the program? I'd love to hear comments about the program. I'm particularly interested in how many class hours there are per week, how many days a week placement is in the first year, and homework load. Also, how large is the program?

I received a conditional offer too. The condition was that I finish the high school chemistry prerequisite with at least a 70%. I got my offer on Feb. 1

Congratulations! I just got accepted into Humber's 2nd entry program yesterday! Super excited :)

I just got my acceptance into this program yesterday! Anyone else?

For U of T, they only use the courses from your degree program to determine your GPA. York looks at your cGPA, your last 30 credits GPA, and your GPA in the prerequisite courses.

Unfortunately I don't think your GPA is competitive enough for U of T's program. Maybe you could look into taking a bunch of classes to increase your GPA. I don't think this would work for U of T though, because I think they use your GPA from your degree only...but it could do the trick for other schools.

Thank you for sharing. Is it difficult to find enough work as a nurse writer? How does the pay usually work? Is there typically a per word rate, or does it vary a lot by the job?

Have you tried to get a student line of credit from the bank? A friend who was not eligible for OSAP did just that.

Do not give up. Come up with another learning plan, like your instructor suggested, and go from there. I don't think you should transfer into the PSW program unless you have no other option. You want to be a nurse, so keep trying! You said it's not your knowledge that's the problem, it's your anxiety. With that in mind you should also try to come up with some strategies to lessen your anxiety, if at all possible.
