   eatyurmakeup replied to bint_adam's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

   Last year the intake was around 150. The GPA cutoff was initially 3.5, but they lowered it to 3.2. I've heard its 3.5 again this year, no plans to lower it, but I need to emphasize that this is just...

2. University of Alberta Nursing After Degree 2015

   eatyurmakeup replied to bint_adam's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

   I'm in the after degree class of 2016. From my experiences, they are very unlikely to make many exceptions for the MMI credit - there were people in our class who had microbiology and immunology...

8. Athabasca English Courses

   eatyurmakeup replied to fingers_crossed's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

   I took English 255 from Athabasca during the spring last year as a pre-req for Nursing - my BA is in Psychology. Not sure about the challenge for credit, and they may have altered the curriculum since...

   JUST heard back with conditional early admission from U of A for the after degree program - they are backed up, still have stacks of conditional admissions to send out. I'm one of those ones who...
