    STAR LITE replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Thank you for the advice ogormankelsey, I agree, I think I have to pay the deposit. Timing is so much in life and I think this example illustrates it perfectly. I emailed UBC admissions today to tell...

    STAR LITE replied to al0a's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Thank you Junoboy, I got confirmation from admissions that classes end at 2:00. The kwantlen program sounds great because it is so flexible, but I am a bit nervous about learning nursing online. Can...

    Thank you amsamps, it is exciting! But, UBC is still my first choice so I am still hoping to get in there. I totally understand about not wanting to bombard UBC admissions and I think you are right...

    STAR LITE replied to al0a's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I have also just received an acceptance to the program which is great, but I am on the wait list for UBC as well so I am pretty confused about what I should do. I was told by admissions that I have...

    STAR LITE replied to skittles12's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Thanks fellow wait listers. I'll check in for us next week if we don't hear anything else on the forum. No sense in all of us bombarding the administration with emails:) I feel like the list is...

    STAR LITE replied to skittles12's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    STAR LITE replied to skittles12's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Hello fellow wait listers, has anybody heard anything yet? And for folks that have been accepted, what is the system? When is the tuition deposit due? How much is it? And, when is the remainder of...

    STAR LITE replied to helisha's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    STAR LITE replied to skittles12's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Amsamps and Ogormankelsey have you been accepted to other programs as a back up if UBC doesn't work out? I have been accepted to the psychiatric nursing program at Douglas, but I wouldn't be starting...

    STAR LITE replied to skittles12's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I got wait listed too - number 17! I think they said in the interview that the top ten is good, but beyond that I don't know if there is too much hope. Can anybody shed some light on this for me?...
