Applicants from Diploma and Degree Nursing Programs

Applicants who have attended a nursing diploma or degree program, the completion of which would result in the graduate’s eligibility to write the Registered Nurse Examination (or equivalent) in order to qualify for registration to practice as a Registered Nurse, must:

  1. Meet admission requirements under Option 1 or Option 2, including the competitive adjusted Grade Point Average in the year of application.
  2. Submit, in writing, the reason for leaving the previous or current program and for applying to the Four-Year Baccalaureate Nursing Program at the University of Manitoba.  

The Dean, Director, Coordinator, or Head of the Nursing program in which the student was previously or is currently registered will be contacted by the Faculty of Nursing for information about the student’s status in the previous or current nursing program (including matters pending) with regard to failures, probation, suspension, determination of professional unsuitability, disciplinary action, or other related matters.

Applicants who would be eligible to register in 3rd or 4th year courses will be considered for admission only if space is available.
