RPN Program Admissions

Hi everyone,

I've seen MANY similar forums regarding admissions requirements to RPN programs however, I still feel very unsure about my current position, as it is a bit unique.

I graduated highschool in 2008 with an 83% average (English G12 -82%, Math G11 -75%, Bio G11-80%, Bio G12 -70%, Chem - in progress)

In 2012, I graduated from U of Guelph with a General Bachelor of Arts degree with a 64% average (NOT good, I know).

I then took a Health and Safety college certificate through Algonquin college (finished in April 2015) and my average was around 80%.

However, I am now taking high school chem, math and bio to bring up my grades. If I could get my highschool grades up, and do well on any entrance exams/HOAE, would I be considered for an RPN program? Do these programs take University grades into consideration as well? Anyone else in a similar situation? (FYI - In reference to Ontario programs)

They will either look at your high school grades, or your pre-health grades if you took that program as an alternative, as well as your HOAE score.
