HI! So basically it means she has all her admission requirements completed.. so after all past years and winter 2016 get accepted. She's got a chance..so yes it's a nice term for being wait listed. She has a pretty good chance of getting in next intake as her GPA is good, and she's been wait listed before.

Hey :) So from what I encountered last intake.. everybody from my semester who had high GPA'S Plus the leftover people who where not accepted from the summer 2015 intake where accepted in the sept 2017 intake. I was on the waiting list and was over looked as my gpa was below 2.9... I am looking at waiting 2 years to get into my second year. If your gpa is not that high.. expect to apply for the next term. Good luck!

I get it.. I've been in your shoes. When they opened this term they moved the cutoff to the winter 2016 students. That is after they accept any applicants who finished the courses first. When I first applied in 2016.. I was told the students from summer 2015 where given priority, also higher GPA's get first pick. As long as you apply your on the radar for the admissions officer. Honestly if I had been told a year ago this whole process would be two years just to enter my 2nd year.. I would have gone to the interior. Also be aware that fall 2015 had an extremely high amount of students.. Douglas college opened xtra classes in patho and micro.. and the intake for each term is about 64 students. Stay positive!

I did a program with CDI- what a waste of money.. I do see lpns in the private sector. At my work we get cdi/Sprott shaw etc. The price is high.. sometimes doing it the longway may seem too rough but you get better pay as these schools have bad reputation's in Fraser health. That being said ther are a few exeptions to the rules.. some people make it out of the private sector. Just expect lower pay and dismay when people like you but read private college. Also what my course cost.. I could have payed double my course in public schools.

Hello people, I finished my requirements in fall 2015. I applied for fall 2017 and unfortunately I was shortlisted twice! Today I received my acceptance for winter 2018 and have until March to pay my deposit. This whole journey has left me pretty humbled.. I realized I will work even harder for my GPA to be higher going into my second year.. English 1130 brought me down and I will strive to keep my GPA higher than 3.0. The most likely reason I probably did not enter fall 2017 as my GPA was under the cut off of 2.9, now I am happy to say I will be going into the nursing program in Jan 2018. Would love to hear who else is in.. we are going to be together for the next three year's people!

I'm so chocked... I'm hoping that what dillybar said about the acceptance letters being released in staggered stages is true about my application. I have emailed Rosemarie a few weeks ago and still have not recieved a response. Yes I was told that I was #35.. I dont understand why I haven't received a response.

Um remember mine was the same as dcnursing.. I didn't get anything. mine has been initial req complete since winter 2017 application.

Hey Leslie! No nothing yet but I think DCnursing cleared up that if we are going to get offers it will be after the 9th of November as that is the deadline for the people who where accepted. I don't know if all the seats have been filled.. only from the people on this forum who have confirmed.. nothing from other classmates. It's hard to stay positive for sure..

Me, meryl and DCnursingstudent had all received an email indicating we wold be entered into the system for free.. honestly I've been told by the administration to apply in every intake while I was taking my courses.. I was told that those who where in the wait list would get preference. The only difference though is that they consider those people but they also have to qualify the past students who where unable to qualify last intake.. and then consider the high GPA students.. then the wait listed. I spent over 100.. I get your pain but we have all gone through this.

Yup at least 2 more intake's the waiting time to take a four year course is 6 years with the waiting period.. crazy!

Hey, I emailed her today.. got an automatic message saying that she's on holiday since saturday oct 29 to Monday Nov 7. My application still says required admin completed. Let's stay positive.. we haven't got a letter for non acceptance or for waitlist. She's probably not going to start emailing back till she comes back. I remember last intake another Douglas student didn't get a reply till like a month and a half after registration. It's only been a month for us and we received emails... she has to filter in the students who applied on Oct 3 too.. even if I'm on the tail end.. I'll be happy. Here is the message: Thank you for your email. I will be away from the College from Saturday, October 29th and returning on Monday, November 7th, 2016. I will respond to your emails in date order upon my return. Please Note: All Fall 201730 Nursing application emails - The Fall 2017 Nursing Program is now full. Applications to the Winter 2018 intake will open on the first business day of February 2017 at the Education Planner BC website - Douglas College - EducationPlannerBC . Unfortunately, I am unable to respond to individual inquiries regarding the status of your application given the high volume of applications we received. Thank you for your patience throughout the application process. Rosemarie Bakker, Admissions Officer, Office of the Registrar, Douglas College, Coquitlam Campus. I think this is a broad message and she's got the people she has to contact.. the home page for the nursing program also indicated back in the first week of october that the program was full sof yeah don't take that to heart. STAY POSITIVE!

Hey guys I emailed rosemary and she's on holiday till the 7th of November. OMG I'm dying...

Your amaze balls... I walked in there last year and they told me my English was not equivalent. Never trusting transfer bc again also.

Hey, Check on BC transfer guide.. I did my English 1130 and 1106 with Douglas but it does not transfer to BCIT. So you have to take additional courses to be abe to apply.

Hey guys.. so yeah I checked too.. bcit I had to take english again cause douglas doesn't transfer.. same with the bio''s they don't transfer to vcc. I guess she must have taken extra classes to classify.
