RPN to RN bridging (UOIT)

Published

Hi fellow nurses,

I'm just wondering if anyone here has any experience with applying to the bridging program at UOIT. I know this is an extremely competitive program, usually with a minimum GPA from the PN program of 4.0 (80 percent) I have a 3.9 from the PN program and was told from an admissions advisor from UOIT that I am very likely to get in without completing any upgrading. However, I'm wondering how accurate this is. My mark is very close to the usual minimum average and am afraid this is cutting too closely as it is just slightly below. My question to every one here is, has anyone applied to this program? What was your GPA? Did you get in? Rejected? Upgraded as a result?

Thanks in advance for taking the time :) and I wish everyone else success in their future educational journeys :)

Also because the clinical courses are 2 credits, it's a good idea to take your electives as well to make it at least 3 credits a term where you can apply for full time osap if you need more funding from osap.

If you click on "Account summary by term" it will show the amount for each term. I forget if the summer term summary comes out right away or later on the year. I think it comes out later on the year and it comes out to roughly 2k-3k.

You can pay by term, you do not have to pay for fall and winter at the same time.

So the first summer you go once a week for a 12 hr shift and the second summer you go 2x 8 hrs shifts a week.

Thank you so much for you reply. Just to make sure I understand, the approx $6000 tuition does NOT cover the summer semester. You're expected to pay another $2-3k for the summer?

Sorry I made a a mistake, summer was 1.4k and it is not included in the 6000.

6000 is a little bit low if you are also taking some electives for both fall and winter.
