Memorial University - Bachelor of Science in Nursing

The Bachelor of Science in Nursing application will open October 16th at Memorial University! This is an exciting time for high school applicants to apply as we will have more seats available for high school applicants in the upcoming 2026 intake. Please share this news with your students who may be interested in a career in Nursing.

The Nursing degree is available at six sites across the province: The St. John’s campus, the Centre for Nursing Studies, the Western Regional School of Nursing in Corner Brook, Gander, Grand Falls-Windsor, and Happy Valley-Goose Bay. The same Memorial Nursing degree is offered at all of these locations.

For the 2026 intake, admission averages for high school applicants are based on courses completed up to grade 11. However, six courses are required to meet the high school pre-requisites (Biology 2201, Biology 3201, Chemistry 3202, Math 3200 or 3201, English 3201 & a grade 12 Social Science or Modern Language course). A full explanation about admission requirements can be found here: https://www.mun.ca/nursingadmissions/admission-information/high-school-applicants/

The application will close Jan. 20th, 2026. The link to apply can be found here: https://mun.ca/undergrad/admissions/i-want-to-apply/

AARAO FAIR - October 28th, 2025

The Atlantic Association of Registrars and Admissions Officers (AARAO) Post-Secondary Fair will take place at Carbonear Collegiate on October 28, 2025. Many Universities and Colleges from Atlantic Canada will be set up to share information and respond to questions from students. This is a great opportunity to learn more about their programs and campuses.

**To share your personal information (name, email, and interest areas) with attending institutes, please follow the directions to create a QR code for yourself. If you do not have data on your phone, you can save your code as a picture. This will make the process quicker on the day of the fair, as they can scan the personal QR code you create instead of having to get all your information each time you visit a booth.
