U of T & York U Accelerated Nursing Program

Published

Hello!

I am currently going into my third year of my program (I am studying Business Administration). I am hoping to graduate in 2019, and hopefully attend either U of T or York's accelerated nursing program after. I was wondering how competitive are these two programs?

Will it hurt my application for U of T if only one of my pre-reqs is at the absolute minimum of a C+ even if my other pre-reqs are A/B's?

I contacted U of T and they said that they review applications 'holistically'. I didn't do very well in my first and second year, and I am hoping to pick up the slack for my last two years. Will my first two years also hurt my application even if my GPA and pre-req's meet the requirements?

U of T requires one academic reference and one work/volunteer reference - if I provide more than one for each will that improve my application or do they strictly only want one for each? I also haven't done much volunteering since high school, I was busy with school clubs and my part-time job. I was wondering where I could volunteer to help my chances?

This is all of the questions I can think of atm. Thanks!
