  • BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN NURSING
  • Centennial College's Bachelor of Science Nursing is offered in partnership with Ryerson University and George Brown College. To complete this degree program, you'll spend your first two years at Centennial and the final two years at Ryerson.

    The goal of this Nursing program is to help you become a nursing leader who is highly competent, knowledgeable and committed to playing an integral role in shaping the future of health care.

    The curriculum, taught by faculty members from both the college and university, has five themes that will be reflected in all program years at varying levels. These themes are:

  • Primary health care/health promotion
  • Reflective practice/critical thinking
  • Meaningful relationships/caring/communication
  • Political/social justice
  • Personal/professional development
  • You'll be required to complete professionally-related courses in areas such as anatomy and physiology, nutrition, ethics, psychology and sociology. Also included in Nursing (BScN) will be a series of required and elective courses, selected from other disciplines, to enhance and support the broad knowledge base required of professional nurses.

    At Centennial's Morningside Campus, you'll benefit from small classes, state-of-the-art medical facilities and individualized attention.

  • You'll partake in hands-on application in a clinical simulation facility where the School of Community and Health Studies hosts large-scale disaster simulation exercises involving major health care services from around the city and beyond.
  • The experienced and caring faculty members are professionals with years of expertise.
  • Clinical placement will give you the advantage of being able to network and make employment contacts.

Advanced standing for students with prior Nursing studies cannot be considered. In addition, RPN diploma holders ineligible for Bridging-to-University programs and applicants who have completed a nursing degree will not be considered for admission.
  • Subject to competition, candidates may be required to present averages/grades above the minimum
  • Additional Requirements

    In accordance with the policy of the program, the Public Hospitals Act, other legislation and the requirements of the practice placement settings, the Practice Requirements Record must be completed in its entirety by a student's health care provider and all supporting documents must be attached. Practice Requirements Record form with full instructions can be obtained from the Central Placement office (CPO) website: www.centennialcollege.ca/schs/bscnryersoncollab.

  • Communicable diseases immunization details as specified in the Practice Requirements Record.
  • Obtain a clear police check with vulnerable sector screening. Vulnerable Sector Screenings must be issued within six months of each placement start date. Any previous criminal record must be pardoned.
  • Vulnerable sector screening – police reference checks are done to protect clientele who are considered "vulnerable persons". A "clear" police check means that there is currently no police record found for that individual in the jurisdiction surveyed. A "not clear" police check means that there is a police record found for the individual for an undisclosed reason. Students are required to keep the original vulnerable sector screening – police reference check. It is the placement agency that will make the decision whether or not to accept the student for placement. This agency decision may require the student to self-disclose the particulars of the "not clear" police check. Students have the right to not disclose the particulars of the "not clear" police check.
  • Students denied placement by the agency on the grounds of a "not clear" police check will not be able to complete their practice placement and will jeopardize their progress in the program.

    International students will need to retain the police clearance document that was used to obtain their study permit and apply for a local vulnerable sector check.

    Students who live in the City of Toronto must obtain an application form from the Health Studies office, Room 352 at Morningside Campus. For information about the application process, please visit our website: www.centennialcollege.ca/Healthstudiespolicechecks
