  1. New Grad Experience - Accelerated Nursing Program UofC

    Hello! I graduated in Dec 2018/Jan 2019 from the accelerated program 1. I was hired onto the unit where I did my preceptorship. I got a casual position to start. 2. Yes, I work at one of the major AHS hospitals in Calgary. 3. Everyone I talked to fou...
  2. Hi, I graduated 6 month ago and landed a job on a busy surgical unit 2 month ago. I've had 6 independent shifts and I struggled through them. I'm making errors (some due to not knowing how things work since I switched provinces... others due to car...
  3. Hi all! Just like to meet all the potential applicants here. Have you applied already?

  6. Question about boundaries

    Hi, recently we had a discussion in class about which actions constitute boundary crossing or violations. The class was divided on a few scenarios, and I'm wondering whether anyone here can shed some light... Is it boundary crossing or violation if y...
  7. The best way is to show them your transcript (scanned and emailed, screenshot, mail etc.) and ask them which courses are transferrable.
  8. It does take a bit of time, so don't worry. Do you see the green circle that says everything has been received? Just keep checking back on your account =)
  9. Accelerated 2016 and/or Athabasca BIOL235 2015-2016

    Hi no-scrubs, For me, my study style is to read the textbook according to the study guide and verbally review the chapter. I find that talking out loud to myself helps the most. That being said, you may have a completely different way of learning, so...
  10. Advice needed! LPN or RN?

    I'm 30 and I am just starting my RN program (in a week actually). Don't worry about your age!
  11. I'm planning to transit as well, but I would have a car just in case since they did mention that some sites can be tough to get to. Car 2 Go doesn't seem as reliable here as it is in BC. Also, awesome to know that there will be another BC person in t...
  12. If there's anything I learned from my previous degree, it's to hold off on buying textbooks until the courses actually start. I've probably lost $1k in total buying books that were never used.
  13. BIO 235

    I replied to you on another post, but I'll post it here again I completed the BIO 235 program this summer. It is a very content-heavy course and my suggestion would be to adhere strictly to the Study Guide, as the midterms and finals do not go beyond...
  14. Accelerated 2016 and/or Athabasca BIOL235 2015-2016

    I completed the BIO 235 program this summer. It is a very content-heavy course and my suggestion would be to adhere strictly to the Study Guide, as the midterms and finals do not go beyond the required material. This is especially important for the s...
  15. School is starting soon! Really looking forward to meeting everyone in a few weeks. Have a wonderful holiday!
  16. I contacted admissions and they gave me a timeline of 4-6 weeks until I hear back. Wouldn't all the spots be filled up by then??
  17. Hi everyone, thank you for reading my post. First, a bit of background about me. I am currently 30 years old, male, with a strong interest in healthcare. I have a PhD in Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, specializing in atherosclerosis. I have also ...
  18. Thank you all very much for your replies and for sharing your experiences/wisdom with me! For some reason I only received alerts for the first couple of responses. A number of you asked why I'm not going for the MD route, and there are a few reasons....
  19. They took forever to receive my transcript... didn't get my green circle until Sept 28th. Any idea how long it takes from here to get acceptance? I applied for the degree holder route and should have a 3.85 GPA according to their calculations.
