UBC 2022 Nursing

Published

Hey guys! I just wanted to start this post for anyone applying for the 2022 cycle for UBC nursing.  Just wondering where everyone is coming from and their experiences.

Hi!

I have been reading about the 602 new nursing seats that are opening up in BC (362 of which are RN seats), which is super exciting! I cannot figure out if UBC-V is increasing their number of seats for their nursing program for September 2022, or if it is being phased in for 2023? Does anyone know anything about this?

Thanks so much ?

Nina

I read about it as well a couple of days ago and even checked the FAQ section of the BSN website to see if they raised the number of seats. If I remember correctly, these 362 new seats go to 17 programs.

"The University of British Columbia (UBC), Thompson Rivers University and UBC Okanagan welcomed additional students in September 2021, with new and expanded intakes at more public post-secondary institutions opening up over the next year and a half." https://news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2022HLTH0004-000250

I was wondering as well when exactly ?

Considering that it's kind of "fresh news", it's probably best to ask them directly. Would be great if they did!

Hello,

I'm currently a Health Care Assistant and have a BSc in Biology from UBC. This is my second time applying (75% average and second quartile for CASPer). Do you think I have a chance of getting in or might I have to wait another year and apply again for 2023?

Thank you so much!

 

And also, good luck to everyone!

I think it depends on the group of applicants! Last year the admission average ranged from 75-95% so definitely depends on more than just grades. You seem to have good experience in the healthcare field so your supplemental is probably strong! Casper may hurt your application but there's no knowing for sure

Hey all, I spoke to one of the faculty in the UBC nursing program and they told me that there are now 150 seats available for this year's entry

Hope that gives everyone a little bit of hope.

Mine still says:  "Your file is ready for an evaluation!  We ask for your patience as this may take some time. We will be in touch with you by email should we require additional information. Please continue to check the status of your application on the Student Service Centre."  ?
