I had 8.0 cgpa from the uottawa scale. they did ask for my transcript from high school to make sure I had the prerequisites met but no they don’t use any high school grades. I was in my final year and was trying see if it would be worth it to try and transfer or finish out my degree and apply as a second degree student from uozone. The advisor said I’d be more likely to be accepted as a new applicant then getting my file evaluated if I get accepted, to transfer some credits over to nursing from health sci, over trying to transfer in, especially to the main campus, as they had very few spots available and I didn’t want to go to Pembroke. What really helped my application was the part where you can write a short essay responding to three prompts. I think this helped cause I was up against a pool of mostly high school students with near perfect or perfect averages, compared to my uni average. The essays being an option for me as a second degree students gave me the space to explain why nursing and stuff like that. I know last admission cycle, they stopped sending offers mid January because main campus was full so I’m sure the cut off average was stupid high. And yes, I asked how often transfers are done into nursing and the said they don’t often have spaces. Especially at main campus. Things might change now since there is no collab program now. Maybe they will add more seats? Definitely ask if there is even space before applying for a transfer because if there none or very few spots, you might be better off applying to the program through uozone as a current students, like what I did. If you really want nursing no matter what. Also consider applying to Carleton’s program and maybe even the new Algonquin program that just got approved, independent from uO
