I'm a current U of C student who applied through the degree holder route. I'll be graduating at the end of this year. Please feel free to post any questions here!
Another round of applications is starting soon for the January 2019 intake of Transfer and/or Degree Holder students. Here's the U of C page for their info:
One of the most common questions is whether the courses you have taken meet the faculty's pre-requisites. The best way to be sure is to email a screenshot of your transcript to [email protected] and ask if you are missing anything.
Important note! As of 2019, the faculty is changing the schedule for the summer terms.
"We will compress all courses in Term 4 and Term 7 to be offered over a 9-week period from late April to the end of June. The result would be an intense spring term, but students would have no scheduled nursing courses during July and August."
While having 2 months off sounds great for some, it causes trouble for others (student loans, jobs, child care etc.). Please be aware of this change before applying.
Went to look at sending some of the current students a message but it says I am not eligible to yet. I am hoping someone from the 2019 cohort sees this, as I am wondering about what your class schedules were like? How many/what days you were in class, what the hours were and clinical/practicum? Do you follow a preceptors schedule in the first year for practicums? Is it a very heavy course load in the spring?
For those who had student loans were you able to get them in the spring too?
If someone sees this and replies, I would really appreciate it!
Hi. I applied into the faculty of nursing at the university of Calgary for winter2020 cohort. I was wondering when the admission letter get sent out to applicants. And I applied through the transfer route. Thanks
