UBC 2021

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?

Congrats!! How long did they give you to get all your post-admission requirements in? And did you get admitted in the morning?

We have to have all post-admission requirements in by July 15. And I was admitted in the afternoon! I was not expecting it at all by that time!

Hey guys! I just got accepted!! Only thing is I didn’t get a letter? I got an email saying your program change request has been approved (even tho I’m graduating from UBC this sem) and then my ssc says congratulations! I just hope it’s not a mistake cause I didn’t get a letter ? I was AL-34 btw!

Congrats! You must be beyond ecstatic!

So exciting!! I'm sure it wasn't a mistake - maybe the letter gets sent a bit later? You could always email the nursing advisor (Akiko?) to double check.

Just a couple more spots then it'll be my turn next (hopefully)!

Congratulations!! The letter for me came via email a bit later. Also once you pay the deposit you'll be provided with all of the info you need. See you in the fall ?

Hiii! Does anyone know if there’s a facebook page started for our cohort? Or if we’d like to start one! Would love to put some names to faces to get to know eachother before school starts? 

Hey everyone, 

I know this forum hasn’t been active in a while and I hope that everyone is doing well with whatever paths you’re on. I had a question, I am applying to the 2022 cohort. I was wondering if anyone was accepted to the program with a 3 in any of the supplemental application, Casper or grades. 
 

Thanks in advance

Hey,

 

I took Biology 230 at Athabasca U which was accepted as an HAP course. It was pretty easy in terms of difficulty and I got to pace myself, so I finished it in around 3 months as opposed to 6/ 1 year. 

Hey @aspiringnurse09! Can you give me some more information about the course BIOL 230? What were exams like, assignments like etc. Is it possible to get a 85% or higher? I need to score well on this! Thanks!

No one knows how they scored/ what number they got if they were directly accepted into the program. UBC only tells you your score if you got placed on the waitlist or if you got rejected.


I was on the waitlist last year (and was eventually offered a seat in the program). I got a 1 in grades, a 1 on the supplemental, and 3 on Casper.

I think UBC weights the Casper score most heavily. When I've talked with other people who were on the waitlist, they seem to think the same thing (I.e., people with a better Casper score but didn't get as high a score for grades or their supplemental were higher up on the waitlist).

I just stumbled upon this thread - thanks for explaining this! May I ask what # were you on the waitlist? And when did UBC notify you that you got accepted? Thanks in advance!

I was #13 on the waitlist, and was accepted on June 19th 

Best of luck :)
