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.
I'm a little bummed, I got a couple final marks back this week for my GPA boosters and although I thought I would be above a 3.6, my GPA is now 3.58 and I am panicking a little bit! I know 3.58 will hopefully be above the final cutoff, but I am stressing now! Anyone have any tips for not freaking out?
If it helps, I think last year the initial cutoff was 3.6 and they ended up going all the way down to 3.53 :) So if they are indeed starting the cutoff at 3.6 this year you shoud definitely be good!
Hi guys got the green check today..so it has started. .it was expected though I got in last year but didnt resume because my visa was delayed ..so I was asked to reapply this year...all the best everyone. .
@Maria94 I believe I submitted my application the day it opened hahaha, which I think was July 1st? My transcripts took a while to arrive and then I was also completing a course online at TRU and they received the transcript for that early August I think!
