Hi everyone! I haven't found a forum for fall 2021 entry of the after degree program at UofA yet so I though I'd start one! I am a current UofA student and have applied at numerous other schools!

FutureRN-HM 27 Posts Feb 17, 2021 Thank you everyone! I'm a little nervous because it's conditional on meeting the competitive GPA for this year. I'm really bummed they're not counting Winter 2020 in the admission GPA because I did really well that semester. Does anyone know if courses from Winter 2021 will count toward it? I'm not 100% sure what my AGPA is but I think its around a 3.4 or 3.5. I took CASPer on January 12th, launchpad updated saying they received the score on February 2nd, and I received the conditional offer on the 11th!
Benny4nursing247 13 Posts Feb 17, 2021 Hi, I do belive as long as you have received a conditional offer, there is hope. Could you please share your Casper experience? I plan taking mine next month not sure what to expect. I type really slow I hear typing speed is important, could thus be true.

I think that conditional means that you need to maintain a minimum GPA of (probably) a 3.0, as that's what you need at least to get into the after degree. I know for when I applied to UofA for my undergrad that I had a conditional offer as long as I maintain 70% average, and I did, so I got in. I think my aGPA should be around 3.7-3.8! As well, do you mind me asking what your launchpad says? Mine used to say "your application is currently under review" but now thats gone, and it says that "if admitted, your final, official transcripts must be submitted". And then in my checklist it says that its awaiting the final transcripts? But wouldn't you only get awaiting them if I got in? Im so confused haha

I'm so slow and I make so many spelling mistakes, but they don't take spelling mistakes into account. I started preparing for it about 3 weeks in advance, by finding all the tips I can, and doing so many practice examples. I started off not timing myself, and then I started to time once I got the rhythm of knowing what I wanted to say each time. I also did buy one package from somewhere so I could have a practice test from them, as well as do the casper practice test they give you.
