Hi! Just looking to see if anyone can give me some unbiased insight on the private colleges for the LPN program. I want to work in the hospital after. I eventually want to end up in OR. Obviously I will need some additional education for that but what do you all think of getting training at either sprott shaw, Vancouver career college? Please and thank you!

You guys should have your final answers by May of this year :) good luck to you all! I withdrew my application in December. Hardest pill to swallow! But I'm going to go for midwifery at UBC now.

Sorry for so many postings; I have issues with this site and my phone

The rest of my application was pretty much flawless though. Thousands of hours with volunteering and workplace as an MOA. I had three outstanding references and my interview went fantastically! Stupid math!!!!

Before you in January. I'm in such a rush to be a nurse!!

Grade. I asked to be deferred to sept 2015 intake so I could try for fast track.:) doing fast track in sept still gets you graduated earlier than the intake

I originally applied to the sept 2014 intake and when I wasn't accepted, I spoke to Ms. NG and she said I had to get at least one letter grade higher in math. (I had a C+) so I've since been working on a higher

Brianne, please tell me you got in!!

Woah not sure my whole msg was posted properly. We found out a week and a half earlier than we had anticipated. Hope that's the case for all of you too!

Hey everyone, I had applied for the Sept 2014 intake and made it to the interview. We were all told that we'd find out a lot later than when we actually did.

In my experiences this far, every faculty member seems to have a different idea of how people are chosen. I find that the applicants know a lot more about it :)

Where was it moved to?

Hey there, fellow BSN applicants So I am looking for some true, factual answers for getting into Thompson Rivers Uni for the BSN applicants. I have an active application to UFV but may in fact be moving to the Kamloops area. So I've looked on their website but am still a little unclear. Oh, and unfortunately the prereqs are different from UFV's, so that's kind of sucky. anyways, can you complete ALL FOUR YEARS in Kamloops? Or do you have to take year one and two in Williams Lake?? I wasn't sure if Williams lake was just an option or if it was mandatory?? Also, can someone who has been through the TRU BSN application process please tell me exactly what they want in a successful applicant? I know from experience that UFV doesn't tell you everything on their website (I made it as far as you can possibly get short of being accepted, because I didn't have my non-nursing electives done.). Any helpful insight would be soooo appreciated, thanks so much!!:)

Aw sorry to hear you didn't get in BKim! I was so sure you would! Have a great wedding!! Hopefully I'll meet you down the road:D

It's really hard to say as far as the volunteer hours go... in my letter telling me that I wasn't accepted, they said I just needed to improve my math grade (I applied with awesome grades besides math) and I only had 30 hours in a retirement home.. But I also have been an MOA for the last 14 years and was able to submit my work hours/years as my references (and they were all excellent references). if you don't have any workplace hours I would submit as many as you can with the nursing home plus if you can take the hospital orientation for volunteering there, so that too! It certainly wouldn't hurt your chances!:)
