All the nursing schools are about the same, what you need to look at are the CRNE exam pass rates for each school (last I checked, Lakehead had a really high passing rate). Other than that, it depends on whether you want to wait another year to get i...

Just got a conditional acceptance to lakehead yesssssss

When is the deadline for you to confirm your offer? I just submitted my transcripts so I'm hoping they are still going to send offers out.

I'm just curious has anyone been accepted to lakehead's compressed program? do they give out conditional offers? and are you taking it?

did you apply with conestoga/mcmaster or mohawk/mcmaster?

I applied to Lakehead's compressed program. I am pretty sure they will send out early acceptances two weeks into February. Any idea if/when they send out an admissions profile for mature students?

Are you applying to Lakehead's compressed program?

There is always a chance, do very well on the test.

I got into the RPN program at George Brown college with terrible marks, I'd estimate that I had a 60% average. It really depends on the admission tests at some schools as to whether you get admitted.

Hey xokw would it be alright if I private messaged you some questions?

AGH I just realized you were talking about MoMac, not Conestoga/Mac...

Great, as if being a male nurse wasn't bad enough, heh lol. Should I bother moving down to Kitchener for the transition year? I'm assuming all the clinical placements would be near the campus location, and since I live in Mississauga... Commuting wou...

Well to put this into perspective, when I started at GBC, we had maybe 200+ students in semester 1, over 100 of those failed or so, and we got new students from another school come in for semester 2 (about 100 from CALC), in semester 3 there was only...

Was this Conestoga/Mcmaster? I was under the impression that you merge with the BSCN students who started in first year.

The tests were pretty easy. The biology part was like 20 mc questions that were pretty basic, the grammar part was pretty long, and the math wasn't too difficult. One bio question was like how many litres of blood are in the female body, or male body...

Have you already been accepted to GBC? Did you apply for Sept 2014 or Jan 2015? If you log onto stuview and go to registration services, then registration, you will see a link to admissions assessment booking. When I applied for for January 2012, I w...

Oh, I mean like how many people you find that got in that are bridging.

I got into the George Brown RPN program in January 2012 with horrendous marks, my high school marks were low 60's in uni level HS courses. Acceptance at George Brown is almost entirely based on the Admission tests for grammar, biology, and math I bel...

Oops, see below

Hey can you keep us updated on how many people are new when you start in September, as well as if any of the people you meet who are bridging got in with uni marks :) Thanks!

I am doing mine at Ryerson.

Wow, that is super high, I am currently taking 4 university courses to make up for my sub-par RPN marks

Interesting, do you have any idea if they give preference to RPN marks over uni marks?

Hey xokw, did you get into the program using your Conestoga marks or university credit marks? and what was your gpa/marks? Thanks

Hey, are you doing the bridging program through Conestoga or Mohawk? I'm curious if anyone has any experience or knows anyone that has done/gone to the RPN to BScN program through Conestoga/Mcmaster. My plan is to take 4 university courses in order t...
