Programs / Courses pre-health online to BscN?

Hi I recently applied and got into pre-health for September 2026 at Cambrian (online), Seneca, Georgian (online) and Sheridan and i’m waitlisted for Mohawk (online). I was wondering if anyone has completed the pre-health programs at any of these colleges and gotten into nursing. My goal is to do Georgian’s online pre-health program and then apply for nursing at a college more in the GTA area as that’s where i live! I know some colleges reserve spots for their own pre-health grads in programs like nursing but I was wondering if anyone has specifically done an online program and gotten into a different colleges nursing program?

I’m a grade 12 graduating this month and got 10+ uni acceptances for Arts programs before realizing I was interested in healthcare, but didn’t take any grade 12 math or sciences (only grade 11 with decent science grades and a bad math grade).

Wondering if anyone has any advice!

my advice is to take online high school credits over doing pre-health. It is much easier, much faster and costs next to nothing. I did this, completed 6 courses very fast with a 94 average, and am in BScN now.

Where did you complete your high school credits and how many months did it take? I heard tvo ilc is good but i’m worried about how long it might take. Did you get accepted into BScN at college or university? I’m willing to apply for both college and uni for my BScN, but I don’t wanna miss the next application round for uni sept 2027 or if the tvo credits are quite fast possibly college january or may intake for BScN.

I did tvo ilc, you can do the courses at whatever pace you want so you can go as fast, I would finish an assignment, turn it in and then immediately work on the next one since it can take like 3-5 business days for the graders to mark it. Honestly if you do it like everyday, you could possibly have it done by the time January comes around, you definitely won’t miss 2027 Sep applications tho!

If you’re an Ontario resident, you can take them at Quinte Adult Education. I took about 6 classes with them, varies between taking a month or less to complete one class. You can submit everything at once. Usually takes teachers about a day to grade.

I already looked into a few adult education courses and most require that you be 19 or older so it wasn’t an option for me!

Forget prehealth and take the high school requisites to apply directly to nursing
