    Hey guys, there's some info about the new curriculum in our Bcit nursing news letter if you want to check it out here: Current Issue – The Scoop of

    TerryCat replied to al-j3an's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Short listed and then the questionnaire. And thanks, I'm actually just finishing level 2 so let me know if you have

  3. BCIT April/Sept 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to al-j3an's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I wouldn't worry about that. I had less volunteer experience than you and I got in first time. Do you have any work experience in customer service? I used my skills from my work experience as examples...

  4. BCIT April/Sept 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to al-j3an's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    WOw! that's impressive! The main things I can think of is having more university credits. Usually they like to see people with more credits than just the bare minimum but that being said they defs...

  5. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I think being yourself and communicating in a clear professional way is probably the best way to go. Rumors about getting in, aspects of the program and even the new curriculum run rampant around BCIT...

  6. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Yah, I would ask admissions about that because I definately littered my answers with my personal experience and emotions. In the program we do a lot of reflective journalling so I wouldn't be...

  7. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    @catandions, who did you hear about the incident report thing from? I got in first time by just writing as though I was journalling about my experience. I used professional language and just talked...

  8. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Interesting! I hadn't heard that before. I definitely filled mine out like a narrative. I was over on all of my word counts but I tend to be wordy. Try not to go over though. I have heard you can...

  9. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Don't think of it as a quiz because it's not one. I read over the standards at the link they supplied and had an idea of a few different scenarios I could write about for each

  10. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    It was really straightforward to me. Think of it like a written interview. The standards of nursing are traits nurses must demonstrate and they'll ask you to give examples of when in the past you...

  11. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I think it's less spots than that. As far as I know, with the new curriculum starting, they are still accepting the same number of students per year, it's just being split up over three cohorts. So...

  12. BCIT April/Sept 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to al-j3an's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Microbiology, I think is. Pathophysiology most likely will not be. The patho at BCIT is extremely nursing specific and also specific to the nursing program. I'm sure you can email the advisor and ask...

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    You can google the bc transfer guide and see there if they have them

  14. BCIT April/Sept 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to al-j3an's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I think I included 2 reference letters. One from work ( I worked for a printing company in sales) and one from my volunteer experience at the seniors home. My GPA is about 4.0. Most people's GPAs...

  15. BCIT April/Sept 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to al-j3an's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Hey, I'm entering Level 2 in August and I provided reference letters. As long as they are good and relevant I can't see how it would hurt. Let me know if you have any questions and please feel free to...

    It made my life so much easier but you can get away with out it. I would recommend getting it

  18. BCIT January 2018 Intake

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I'm pretty sure that applying earlier in no way helps you. Bcit is a competitive entry program. They wait until the application close date to start going through them as far as i am aware... As for...

    TerryCat replied to Twinkyswirl's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Hi J.gill for the prereqs you don't need to transfer them usually. Just submit a transcript when you apply. Once you're in the program if you have any courses you want to transfer such as microbiology...

  23. BCIT January 2017

    TerryCat replied to Kayyyy's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    I thought I read that people who had applied before, had gotten accepted before redoing the questionnaire but I can't find the post so maybe I dreamt it. I tend to get very realistic dreams when I'm...

  24. BCIT January 2017

    TerryCat replied to Kayyyy's topic in Canada Nursing Programs

    Make sure you guys apply again, It looked like last year some people got conditional acceptance before even filling out the questionnaire if they were applying for the second time. I'm so sorry to...
