I was browsing and did not see a thread for the 2018 UBC BSN applicants so thought I'd start one.
I am just finishing up my supplemental nursing application and hope to finish my application by the end of today and have already submitted my transcript. Just wanted to know who else is applying/GPA/past experiences with UBC/any tips or information for the application anyone wishes to share.
A bit about myself.. I am currently an LPN working at a hospital and also work part-time in retail in a leadership role, I do not have a Bachelor's degree but am applying anyways (hoping my supplemental weighs heavy in my favour). I have a GPA of 3.55 and will have ~30 credits at the end of this Fall term. I have some volunteer experience working with companies during their charity campaigns and am hoping to do more volunteer work this year. I will also be applying to BCIT, Langara and Queen's University once their applications open up.
Good luck to everyone and please share any information you're able too!
SSC is 604 822 9836 - the person who answered my call doesn't have any updates for Nursing admission delays, and just advised to keep watching email and SSC portal.
Thanks everyone for trying to get info. I just spoke to someone and they didn't have specifics but said it was unusual for it to be delayed, and if it's not sent this week then try calling again.
Thanks for checking everyone! I just wanted to vent that I'm so frustrated at this point. So much of my life is in a holding pattern hinging on this email and it's so annoying that they didn't follow through on their dates.
Thank you for keeping us updated, though! Seems like you were one of very few to actually get through to her recently. Good to know I won't have to keep checking SSC so often... (still, ugh.)

I tried calling and it went to voicemail. I'm afraid to leave one because I don't want to come off as 'pestering'.
