Western Ontario Nursing - Course prerequisites

Published

Anyone know if a 6 credit physiology and anatomy course fulfills both physiology requirement and anatomy requirement for Western's Compressed Time Frame nursing program? Or do I have to take another 3 credit physiology course?

Thank you

On the website, I found the following information on prerequisites:

The minimum 10.0 courses presented for consideration must include the following:

No more than 5.0 courses at the introductory level (equivalent to courses numbered 1000 to 1999 at Western University) for applicants applying with only 10.0 courses

1.0 course in human physiology, or equivalent*

0.5 course in anatomy*

0.5 course in introductory statistics*

*Applicants with university preparation at Canadian institutions should reference the Course Equivalency List to determine which courses meet the physiology, anatomy and statistics requirements

I saw it too and I was just wondering if a 6 credit (1.0) course in human physiology AND anatomy would fulfill both the physiology requirement and anatomy requirement. But thank you! :)

You will need to contact the school and ask them.

A 6 credit physiology and anatomy course will not fulfil the pre-requisites for Western's CTF program. You will need that additional 3 credit physiology course giving you a total of 9 credits (6 for physiology and 3 anatomy)

Hope that helps!
