UBC 2021

Published

Hiya folks!

It's a bit early, but since the application period opens in a couple of months, I thought I'd start this topic to share support/encouraging words/info/nervousness.

Is anyone else already excited for next September?

Wow I made an account just reply back to this..That's so crazy because I'm in the exact same boat as you! Doing my last semester of Bsc Psych and changed my mind right after second year as well. I also really wish I had done nursing after high school and although I also loved studying psych, doing a Masters is just not for me! Sounds like you have an amazing application, I was so happy to see someone with a very similar journey LOL. Goodluck!! 

How amazing! I loved studying psychology, too! It was an interest of mine for a long time so I'm hoping once I become a nurse I can get into a field that integrates aspects of both nursing and mental health/wellness. I'm glad we figured it out before entering a Masters program LOL. Good luck to you as well! ? 

Hi everyone, 

I am planning to apply for the 2022 intake. Does anybody know a campus that offers an English course  WITHOUT prerequisites and that suffice the English requirement for UBC admissions?

I had my degree from another country so I am still working on my pre requisites.

Thank you very much in advance

Hi, I am curious how many total credits is this program? I can't seem to find it on the website.

Looks like it's 81 credits from the nursing program itself (if you include the 48 transferrable non-nursing credits you apply with then it's 129 credits). http://www.calendar.ubc.ca/vancouver/index.cfm?tree=12,211,386,381

Does anyone know what happens to the credits that aren’t transferred to the program? Eg. If I have 60 credits and 48 of those credits are transferred to our nursing degree... what happens to the other 12 credits?

Both my first and second choice are getting reviewed. I wonder if that's an indication my first choice will be rejected

No, I think they are reviewed by different departments

Yeah I remember reading that you may be evaluated for your second choice and offered admissions to your second choice before your first choice as they are two separate applications. What is your second choice?

My second choice is Nursing, but my first choice is actually Computer Science.
