    Hi @ashes12. I took two courses through Athabasca. Health Sciences I and II. They were time-consuming but relatively easy and quite interesting. Best of

    I would call. They made a mistake in calculating my GPA and had put me on the waiting list. I called to enquire and was offered a spot the next day. Best of

    I won't be there. I have swim officiating courses there on Sunday morning so I don't want to go in two days in a row. Have

    Have you received your registration package in the mail? I am hoping that will address many of my questions. How did you know what classes to enrol in? I feel like I'm missing something

    Have any of you who've been accepted actually enrolled in classes yet? Do you have to wait for your registration package to do

    Just got the green check mark! So excited! I happened to call the enrolment office and they had miscalculated my GPA so I'm glad I called because as soon as they adjusted it, I got an offer. Good luck...

    Entry for January 2016 - cutoff was 3.5. I had a 3.44 and was on the waiting list but never got in. Hopefully the cutoff doesn't increase too much this time around. Good luck to

    I am applying for the degree holder route and they don't do fall entry. So, yes, it was the Winter term last year and I had a 3.44. Apparently there were only 2-3 people ahead of me but it was enough...

    kneuroknut replied to rjfried's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I hope you don't mind me asking your GPA? So I have a rough idea of where they are at in the pile?

    kneuroknut replied to tparno's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    It's been going up each year but I'm hoping it doesn't go up too much this year. It's not so much that they raise or lower it, it's the pool of applicants that dictates the cutoff. So if there are 120...

    kneuroknut replied to rjfried's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    They convert all your percentages to GPA, add them up and take the average. They only count the last ten courses so if you want to calculate, take the last ten you did (and if there are say 4 from a...

    kneuroknut replied to rjfried's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Here is the link to the conversion table: Appendix 1 - GPA Conversion Tables | MD Program | University of Calgary There is no "between". If you got a 79.9 it's a 3.3. If you got an 80, it's a 3.7....

    I too have applied for the 2017 winter (the degree-holder route) and am dying to hear. I had a 3.44 last year and didn't get in so I did some course and now sit at 3.6. Fingers crossed that the...

    Curious if any of this year's cohort ended up leaving the program? I have heard they usually lose a couple to medical school - did that happen again this year? Hope everyone is enjoying

    Yes, the A & P (assuming it's the 6 credit course) will be doubly weighted when calculating your GPA. So it will be your last ten courses that they will look at for your GPA calculation with your...

    Congrats @carlene85 ! Do you mind sharing your GPA? I'm curious where they are at now. I understand if you don't want to, just trying to get a sense of where we are at.

    I just spoke with admissions. They are still at the 3.5 cutoff and they do not expect to move from that. They are currently full as far as offers go but have given everyone 10 days to accept their...

    @mainurse Sorry to hear the news. I'm expecting I'll see that red dot soon too. Very frustrated. With my undergrad I would have been in already so my Master's degree actually worked against me. If I...
