Program details
Overview
This Bachelor of Science in Nursing program prepares students for registered nursing practice through coursework in anatomy, physiology, health assessment, communication, professional foundations, and psychology, combined with clinical placements, simulation labs, and interactive teaching. It is delivered collaboratively between Toronto Metropolitan University and Centennial College, with entry available through either institution while all students ultimately earn the degree from Toronto Metropolitan University. Clinical placement is a mandatory component of the program, integrated throughout its four-year, full-time structure. Graduates are eligible to write the licensing examination administered by the national nursing regulatory body and to apply for registration with the College of Nurses of Ontario. The program suits students seeking direct-entry registered nursing training with a defined path to clinical practice and community health work, rather than a general health sciences degree, and who meet the program's Ontario secondary school admission requirements, which the page sets at a comparatively high overall average given the program's collaborative, dual-institution structure.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Direct entry requires the OSSD with six Grade 12 U or M courses, including English (ENG4U/EAE4U preferred), Chemistry (SCH4U), Biology (SBI4U) and one Grade 11 U/M or Grade 12 U mathematics course (MCF3M, MCR3U, MCV4U, MDM4U or MHF4U), each at a minimum of 70%, with an overall average of at least 70% required for consideration; because the collaborative programme is highly competitive, recent admitting averages have run 90%+ at the TMU site and 85-90% at the Centennial College partner site, and fluctuate yearly with application volume. Applicants without Ontario schooling may be considered with the recognised equivalent, at TMU's discretion; the programme page defers to the general admission requirements page, which sets IELTS Academic 6.5, TOEFL iBT 92, Duolingo 120, PTE Academic 60 or CAEL 70 for English proficiency.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Toronto Metropolitan University sets one guaranteed-consideration date for both domestic and international applicants applying for Fall 2027 entry: complete applications and amendments received by 1 February 2027 receive equal consideration for admission, and TMU says this same date applies to 'all domestic & international applicants.' Non-academic ('Grades-Plus') requirements are generally due around this point too, though the exact date varies by programme. For Winter 2027 (January-start) entry, TMU's program-status page gives domestic applicants a guaranteed-consideration date of 1 December 2026, with most programmes closing applications in mid-December; a limited number of programmes separately accept international applications for winter admission subject to space availability, but TMU publishes no fixed closing date for those international winter applicants. Admission is not rolling: late applications are considered only as space allows after the guaranteed-consideration date. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
