any SUNY packages, salus or New England?
also anyone going to the Salus Accelerated 3 year program
 
If you don't mind me asking, what was your science or pre-requisite GPA? I am very similar to your situation but wanted to know if variance in GPA's would have a large effect as I am a student applying this summer.

Hi, I'm sorry I just saw this. My pre-requisite GPA was around 3.20 - I can't remember the exact number. It depends on why your GPA is low. With respect to the classes I did not so good in, I did well on the corresponding OAT section. Also, my GPA showed an upward trend over the years, so it helped explain that I have better study habits now.

Feel free to PM me if you have any specific questions.
 
Hello everyone on this thread, I just have a question as a Canadian Applicant in next year's cycle

I graduated with my Bsc already but I need one more English course to fulfill prereq requirements. Must all prereqs be completed before application or before admission?

You would have to have all prereqs done before matriculation.

just to clarify, even if i'm not finished the prereq course, will I still get an acceptance on the condition that I finish them before the start of the school year?
 
How this GPA calculated? I am wondering if you have repeated class how to calculate it.
