Hi After getting your license, get some experience in med/surg and take nephro 1 and 2 courses from humber college, part of nephrology certificate, then apply from the website. Better chance if you know someone from the unit.

I've done this through Centennial program. You have an option of taking flex (instead of full time bridging program, you take about 70- 80% course load in a term), still eligible for osap (I got OSAP for first two semester but consolidation part (200 hrs) paid out of my pocket cost about $1000.) it take two semesters for theory courses+200 clinical, and another 5-6 weeks for the remaining 200 hrs consolidation. *** once you complete these courses, you no longer need to meet English proficiency requirement. Automatically exempted from it as you took the courses in English speaking institution. self-explanatory.... *** after completing all the courses/clinical hours, the school need to fill out your VCC form and send it to CNO & you need to mail final transcription from school to CNO as well... then registration package arrives.. fill it out and send it back to CNO with police check and fee payment.. once your school's done, all these remaining paper works takes about 4-6wks.

Contact Centennial RN Bridging program. if you start in Sept, you can complete requirements in 2 semesters (6-7 months) if you do full-time. if part-time, takes about 3 semesters to meet all the requirements. Hope it helps.
