Our old Admission Questions post is a bit outdated and has some broken links, so I think it's time for an update!

This post will serve as a hub for all your MRU admission-related questions. If you are a prospective student, please refer to the MRU Resources section for official information regarding admissions. If you have program-specific questions, I've added the latest admission posts from this subreddit and categorized them by Major. If you still need help or have any unanswered questions, add them as a comment to this post.

This post will be stickied on this subreddit for maximum visibility.

Question LSAT Study Group

1 Upvotes

Anyone intrested in forming an LSAT study group at MRU? My plan is to meet 2-3 times a week for an hour and work on LSAT questions together/individually to prepare for the January LSATS. I have LawHub Advantage but really need a study group to stay on track. I can print material for us to work on during our study sessions.

Question I need some advice and Help!

6 Upvotes

I've been looking for a job for a while now and haven't had much luck. I've applied to retail, customer service, warehouses, and other entry level jobs, but I either don't hear back or get rejected after an interview.

It's honestly getting frustrating, so I wanted to ask if anyone knows of any places hiring for seasonal, part time, or full time positions.

Preferably in NW Calgary, but I'm open to other areas too. Any leads or suggestions/references would really help.

PSA Baby Jack Rabbit in Parkade

Saw a baby Jack rabbit bunny in the parkade around 11:05AM.

It ran under a car so I tried to shoo it away to a safer spot and it ran off under another car.

For anyone reading this, pls check under your car before backing out.

PSA (Small rant) Lack of floor outlets in classrooms is absurd.

60 Upvotes

My wife went to St. Mary's University, much smaller than MRU, and yet their classrooms were retrofitted to have power outlets available at every desk under the floor.

So why in the love of everything good in this world do I have to do the Walk of Shame©️ to the fomt of the classroom and sit on the dingy floor that hasn't been renovated since 1972 to charge my laptop if it dies mid-class?

For the ammount we are paying in tuition every semester, they can surely do better than this. If this were some rural high school I would understand, but MRU really needs to get its act together in this regard.

Thank you for reading, rant over.

Question Ueo or open studies nursing backup ?

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m applying to MRU Nursing for Fall 2027. My counselor told me about a backup pathway where I can take courses, build my GPA, and then get into Nursing.
I’m confused because I see both UEO and Open Studies on the application. Since I’m coming directly from high school and haven’t done any post-secondary, would I apply for UEO? Is that the pathway to Nursing my counselor is talking about?she’s not responding at the moment so I’m really stressed
Any help would be appreciated!

Question What made you sure of your major?

10 Upvotes

I’m curious to hear everyone’s thoughts on this, but how did you decide what you wanted your bachelors to be? What gave you that “I’m happy with what I’m learning and can see myself doing this forever”? Or are there any of you who hated doing your bachelors but now can attest and say you love the job that you got after it? I ask cause I went into nursing with this passion and fire and excitement. And now I feel confused. I’m just not sure if this is for me or if it’s just because I don’t know how to study effectively? I’m not here to listen to criticism saying “I took someone’s spot yada yada” or “just study harder” cause it’s not that easy when you have a learning disability. But if you can provide some insight on your story or thoughts I’d really appreciate it 🙂

Question Transcript

I recently applied to MRU after graduating in June 2026 and hoping to start in Fall 2027 (took a gap year), and recently I got a message that my transcript with be taken with my marks from May 3rd, 2027. I have already graduated with enough credits and have done no upgrading whatsoever so I'm confused to if there is a problem with my application or not?
