  1. Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2015)

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Most likely one of your pre-reqs wasn't considered equivalent. If one of them was taken online that might be the one. If you plan to apply again next year it'd be worth trying to call and find out...

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I think they probably just want your transcript with your final marks. Call admissions and make

  3. Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2015)

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    If this year is like previous years than the waitlist for York started 2.5-3 weeks ago. York has always filled all external seats first, then when externals were filled sent out acceptances for all...

    xibb replied to Hfro's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I didn't have to pay a single penny to get titres taken for MMRV and Hep B in Ontario, and that was last summer... I noticed most of the replies here are from Americans. My school actually required...

    If you live in Toronto you have to pick up a form from the NPCO, otherwise just go to your local police service. But PLEASE don't waste your money, don't get your police check done before

  6. Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2015)

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    York's nursing program was technically "full" by June, but people were accepted from the wait list up until September! I know the wait is horrible, but hang in

  7. Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2015)

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    WAIT to do all this. DO NOT do it before August! Your CPP is your clinical preparedness permit, you have to complete it so you can attend clinical. Police check, mask fit, etc is all apart of it. They...

  8. Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2015)

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Unfortunately, generally once you receive an alternate offer to another program you're no longer considered for the program you applied for. Very sorry to those of you who didn't make it in this year....

    Okay, that might be accurate

  10. Accelerated Nursing York 2015 entry

    xibb replied to ordinary's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    They do rank applicants based on GPA. I only said they don't seem to weigh sessional GPA over cumulative GPA or vice versa. Both are

    Not true. I'm in the program. People got in with mid Bs overall but they had mid/high B+s in the last year of

  12. Accelerated Nursing York 2015 entry

    xibb replied to ordinary's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    They look at the transcript your school sends them. They don't convert your GPA. Based on what I've seen over the years I don't think York really has a pattern of weighing cGPA vs

    Yes but they also consider cumulative

  14. Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2015)

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    No decision yet means exactly what it says. If you are rejected, your application status will be updated to reflect that. Why do you think you don't have the right pre-reqs? If it's because of that...

  15. York Second Degree Nursing Fall 2015

    xibb replied to ksoohyun21's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    York's 2nd entry BScN admissions undertakes a more comprehensive examination of course equivalencies when processing applications so if the prereqs you took cover essentially the same content as those...

  19. Universities: IEN to RN Programs

    xibb replied to cloudgal's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    The only question I can answer is that yes, both schools are accredited with the CNO which means you will be allowed to write the RN licensing exam (the NCLEX, the CRNE was replaced this year)....

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    The bottom one without "(Seneca)" is definitely 2nd entry. Congrats on the acceptance! If this was on myfile it updates sooner than

  21. Accelerated Nursing York 2015 entry

    xibb replied to ordinary's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I'm still in second semester, so I can't comment on the community placement. In retrospect I actually thought this was the case but thought it better to be safe than sorry. Glad everything is

  22. Accelerated Nursing York 2015 entry

    xibb replied to ordinary's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    The nursing program at York always gives students 1 day off per week. In 1st semester you'll have 4 days of classes until clinical starts, then 3 days and 1 day of clinical after (8 hs, LTC...

    xibb replied to ordinary's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I got this from the admissions page the same day I posted it. I would contact the program for clarification if you believe the courses are outdated. It could also be that UofT changed some course code...

  24. Ontario Second-Entry Nursing (2015)

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    It is still VERY early for York acceptances. I'm confident only a small portion of seats have been filled at this point. A lot of acceptances are given through April-May, and for internal applicants...

    xibb replied to MatchaGreenTea's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    On your last point, you absolutely cannot set up your own placements. I'm pretty sure most if not all nursing schools in Ontario have their placements arranged by the Health Science Placement Network...
