This is a thread for everybody applying for the UFV Bachelor of Science in Nursing Program for the Fall (September) 2021 intake.
We can talk about our grades and GPA's, volunteer or work experience's, other schools we're applying to and so forth.
I submitted my application beginning of October when the applications opened up and applied with 3 A’s and 1 B in Pre calc 11. I also have about 800 hours at a hospital and 80 hours at a care home.
That's probably the reason. I'd say probably too low of a GPA or not enough volunteer hours. Mine is also ready for review. Treena from health studies phoned me at the beginning of February just to double-check my application and she said my app was all good.
I had one B and 3 A's the first time I applied and I didn't get in but it was a very low B and it took my average down by quite a bit. I feel like if your average is above like an 86 or 88 you shouldn't worry too much. As long as you do well on the essay and the interview you should be OK. FYI I found the essay a lot more difficult. Apparently, I had a really good interview but my essay wasn't the best and my grades weren't strong enough.
I didn't know they looked at the average? I thought it was just based on point system per course grade?
See I thought the same thing. They said my GPA wasn't high enough so I took it as average but maybe that's not it? Not entirely sure if I'm gonna be honest
I got like a 84 in pre calc 11 I was 2% away from an A so I’m not sure. And yes I am really scared for the interview and essay part as well.
I upgraded my math course in 3 weeks and I finished with an 85! I was sooo mad but ill just have to go with it I guess. Don't be! It honestly wasn't that bad. I can't tell any specifics but for the essay, I'd just recommend researching nursing and what the job entails. Can't give much advice on the interview cause of confidentiality but I think that as long as you have good morals you'll be fine.
