Program details

Overview

This program leads to a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN), offered full-time at the Keele Campus by the Faculty of Health for upper-year entry only, admitting in the Fall term. It is designed for internationally educated, licensed registered nurses seeking registration with the College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO) and career advancement in the Canadian healthcare system. The curriculum combines coursework with clinical practicums, and students may pursue optional specialized streams in High Acuity and Critical Care, Mental Health, or Care of the Older Adult. The program suits internationally trained nurses who hold, or can obtain, a CNO evaluation or registration certificate and who need Canadian academic and clinical credentials to practise as a registered nurse in Ontario. Coursework builds on nurses' existing clinical experience while addressing Canadian scopes of practice, healthcare systems and regulatory standards.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Applicants must be a licensed registered nurse in their home jurisdiction and hold either a College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO) evaluation confirming diploma-level education equivalency or a CNO Registration Certificate. Applicants must submit supporting documentation and, where required, language proficiency test results. The program admits for Fall entry only, at the upper-year level, with an application deadline of June 1. Unless exempt, applicants must meet York's undergraduate English proficiency minimums for Nursing: IELTS Academic 7.0, TOEFL iBT 94, PTE Academic 67, or Duolingo 130.
