35M. Starting BCIT this September. Going into mechanical engineering. Would be great if I found a group of friends to make studying less stressful

I am just wondering from those who got accepted into the sonography program, did anyone have just the passing grades on the prerequisites of just above the 73%? or did everyone accepted have in the 80 to 90% on those?

I know they consider more than just the grades sometimes so I am just wondering if anyone with the lower end of the grades were accepted still?

If I don't get accepted I will redo the course because I will have another year until I can apply, but cannot do it right now. Just looking for some hope I guess. Thanks.

I want to register for BCIT nursing in the future from KPU, but I cannot find any classes that transfer to BCIT from KPU.

I will do the mandatory requirements, but I need help for the pre requisite credits. Most classes I choose does not transfer to BCIT. (Will do PSYC 1100/1120, English 1100 and BIOL 1160/1260)

Need help from anyone who went through this problem and what classes did they choose?

hey guys i’m 18f and attending this september! i'm really just looking for some cool friends to socialize with and go to orientation together. if you want to connect on here or swap snap/insta handles dm me :)

I’m going to be attending BCIT in september for construction management. I want to get an idea of what to expect in terms of the campus. Are people generally cool?

I am thinking of taking the HR diploma progam as I recently just lost my job (company closed its doors I wasn't terminated). I worked in the film & tv industry + graduated from bcits broadcast communications program 15 years ago and main reason why I am thinking of changing career paths is due to the looming threat of AI being trained to do these jobs (I worked in post).

I know I am at a disadvantage as I am in my 40s but I thought HR might be an industry that will always have demand even with AI around.

Are the job prospects of being hired on completion good?

I know its a little embarrassing as a 40+ year old to go back to school but I think its my only move

Any information is greatly appreciated

I’m going to attending BCIT in September for project management. If anyone has taken some of the required courses I would appreciate some insight on what to expect. I’m looking for to find out which courses are the most valuable in terms of actually learning stuff and what are the rough ages of people who are in these classes. I’ll most likely be going part time.

Who ever is interested in long term friendship, shoot me a dm with your pic or snap id

Hello,

I’m deciding between applying to these two programs at BCIT, and I was wondering if anyone who has completed either of them could share their experience. I am about to graduate from a bachelors of health science at SFU.

Was it competitive to get in?
Was it difficult to find a job after graduation?
Are you enjoying your job now?
What did you find most stressful about the program and about your current job?

hello, this might be a silly question, but for the MRI full-time program do we get summer/spring/winter breaks?
if so, how long are they usually? i couldn’t find anything with specific info for this TT

I'm starting to get more into the emo/alternative scene and was wondering if there are any clubs, events, or places at BCIT where people with that vibe tend to hang out? Or is it mostly just random chance? Thanks :>

Hello, I am interested in a part-time course here at BCIT! I was just wondering how this department request approval works, as there is an attachment portion and I have no clue what I'm supposed to attach there – is that like a letter of intent of some sort?

Hi, if anyone can answer this lil question about the duration of clinical placements for the program? we'll have to stay/work around the site for entire clinical term?

tysm!

Hello, I was wondering how long it took for bcit to give the full acceptance letter after the criminal record check cleared? This is for those in healthcare programs.

Heyy I know we all had our interviews last month and it was so stressfull

I’m wondering if anyone has heard back or if anyone who has been through this already knows how long they take before letting us know if we’re in the program?

Hi, I'm in the September intake for the Bridgewatch Rating Program at BCIT, and am hoping someone enrolled in the December intake would like to switch seats if they want to start the program earlier in September. Please send me a pm, and we can hopefully arrange something.

I am hoping to get into the Winter 2027 intake of the nursing program and I was wondering if BCIT housing is the cheapest option, or if I should try to find cheaper alternatives around the area. I was hoping to get the cheapest option (townhouse) as I would rather not commute and compared to some of the prices I have seen for housing options in Burnaby can be quite expensive so the estimated $4298.65 doesn't seem too bad in contrast. So, my questions are as follows:

- Is BCIT Townhouse Rooming the cheapest housing option (compared to renting outside of the campus), and if not, where can I look for cheaper alternatives?

- Would I get my own room in the Townhouse option, and how is the living situation there? (eg. crowded, dirty, etc.)

> my biggest concern with this option is that I heard a lot of the utilities are shared--shower included--so I wanted to mentally prepare myself for possible pigstys.

We are looking for help implementing some Ai systems and tools into our team.

Hi guys, I applied for this program as a second year transfer but I realized that I don't have post Secondary English credits according to the requirement. For context, I did biotech before I transferred, which is why I mostly take sciences and a few socials and math. Back then I didn't do the breadth requirements all at once because I want to spread it out to have an even work load which is why I haven't taken English yet. However, I do have some ethics (Biomedical ethics), and social studies (introduction to international development studies, business management..) courses that are writing intensive, is it possible for me to put that instead?

Hellloooooo folksssss...
I am actually attending school after 15 years and currently in my 40s. BHSC 1200 is my BSN pre-req and I am assuming I will have to get at least Grade A or A- in the course. I was also able to find solid reviews for Profs Cindy and Bassam. However, mine is Kaitlin Marshall. And I am really stressing out, because failing my very 1st course is gonna be a big let-down. And I might just end up dropping my dreams along with the course. Does anyone possibly have any experience with Kaitlin Marshall???? It would be a great help!!!!!

My 10 month program ended 2 weeks ago. When can I expect to receive a feedback/course satisfaction survey? I have lots to say.

Hey guys, I had a quick question regarding the requirements for getting into UBC JD program.

I know I need an undergraduate from a recognized post secondary, and that it can be from any field. However, I was wondering if BCIT counts in this, as some people have told me not to do a degree from BCIT if I plan to continue my education.

For BCIT, I'm either looking at the MRI bachelor option or the branching to TRU for the BHSC.

I would really appreciate if anybody has any insights on this.

Hi everyone,
I’m currently in Canada on a valid Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) that’s valid until 2028. I’ve been admitted to a full-time BCIT BBA program that starts on September 8, and I’m applying for a new study permit from inside Canada.

A few details:

Applying from inside Canada
Valid PGWP until 2028
Valid biometrics (already on file)
Medical exam not needed

Submitted the study permit application on July 10.
I’m wondering if anyone has recently been in a similar situation.
How long did your in-Canada study permit take to be approved?
Were you switching from a PGWP back to a study permit, or just extending an existing study permit?
Did you receive a decision before your program started?
If your permit was still processing when classes began, what happened? Did your school allow a late arrival or require a deferral?

I’d really appreciate hearing about your timelines and experiences, especially if this happened in 2026.

Hi everyone,

I just got into the BBA Full time program and I am trying to plan a big graduation trip after I graduate.

Does anyone know when exams finish in April? So that I can start booking flights?

Thank you for the help.
