CCA to LPN / Returning student query

As the title says. I'm a CCA graduate from NSCC thinking of going for LPN, and I have a couple of questions:

  • Since I graduated from CCA, do I still need the required high school courses for LPN?

  • Do I need to re-submit my transcripts from high school and the CCA course, since they should already have them on file?

  • Will I need to complete the 'Dementia: Understanding the Journey' course again? And if not, do I still have to pay for it?

Thanks!

Being asked to enter Authenticator code

When I try to log into brightspace from either my pc or MacBook, it asked me to enter the code from my Authenticator app. But I only have Google authentication and the nscc doesn’t work for that? Do I have to call the school or is there another way to fix this?

I can’t even log into one drive from home. It only started doing it this week.

Waitlisted on Business Adminstration Winter 2025

Hi, Hope you all are doing well,

I am currently waitlisted on a Business Adminstration course on Dartmouth Campus for winter 2025, there are 5 people on it. What do you think will I get admitted to either of the course ? Or another option is to again apply and pay the 100 dollar fees to change the campus to Kentville, doesn't sound fair though to pay the fees again but there is no other choice.

Anyone with experience in waitlist and if they got admitted from waitlist?

Questions about Business Admin for students/grads

Hi, I’m looking into going back to college and taking Business Admin, possibly focusing on Accounting second year. I have a few questions I want answers to if anyone can help.

Are there any pre-reqs? I don’t have Academic Math (I didn’t think I’d need it when I was still in high school, bad call on my part), and am wonder if it would be worth taking the Academic Upgrading course before applying.

I also see a lot of people taking about doing 2+2 with a university post-NSCC. I’m wondering if this is recommended or if you’re able to find employment with just the NSCC diploma? I’m just curious so I can better lay out all of my options.

I appreciate any answers you have for me! Thank you for reading! :D

Did I just get accepted?

I was casually checking my application status today and stumbled upon this, but I have not received a letter or email (granted, if it's by letter it will probably take longer since I'm US based). Am I crazy, or did I just get accepted? Or could this be an error? I applied September 23rd.

NSCC Student Looking for Workplace Shadowing Opportunity – Any Tips?

Hey everyone,

I’m currently a student in the Pipe Trades program at NSCC, and I have workplace shadowing coming up. Unfortunately, I’ve been having a really hard time finding an employer who can take me on for a week of shadowing, and it’s starting to stress me out. I’ve reached out to a few companies, but no luck so far.

Does anyone have any tips or advice on how to find an employer for shadowing? Are there any particular approaches that worked for you, or ways I could improve my search? I’m open to any suggestions at this point.

Why are the principals list awards not a thing anymore?

I’m a returning student and I asked my teacher if they still do these awards and he had said no. Which is a big disappointment since that was a goal to achieve when I studied at NSCC in 2018. In case it matters, I’m a student at Ivany.

Out of province practicum

Hi.

I have a prospective job offer out of province and they offered to host me for a practicum. Has anyone heard of NSCC rejecting out of province practicums? I'm doing my program online, so there isn't anything keeping my in Nova Scotia, but I still want to complete my diploma.

Hello everyone!

my name is Olivia. I've been researching the NSCC application on the internet, and I saw a community on Reddit. I found the comments very interesting and would like some help on how the Mynscc website works? And how do I add documents?

I am applying to be a new student. Thank you.

Where to find assignments on bright space?

I know this is a stupid question, but I got enrolled late and I’m behind on work. Earlier today my teacher showed me how to get to the assignments page. But I can’t find all. All I can find is the class, and nothing else showing where I can do assigned work.

Can someone help me? It’s stressing me out because I don’t want to seem stupid by asking the teacher again. And I really want to get work done tonight

IT programming January 2025

Hi! I am doing IT programming in January. Wondering if a MacBook Pro is suitable or if I should get a new laptop? Also have an iPad which I used in university for note taking and organizing course materials. Do you think this will be necessary in this program?

When is it too late to change courses?

I know so far we’ve had 16 days of classes. Or was the 14th the last day. I only work part time so studying wouldn’t be a problem. But I saw the course I originally wanted has seats available, but is one of the most popular courses and is always full. The course I currently enrolled in is in the same field.

Ps, If it’s not too late. Do we call or email to ask change courses?

Need help! How to sync NSCC outlook calendar to iPhone calendar?

Does anyone know how to get our nscc outlook calendar on the iPhone calendar app? I have tried to add the account through settings> mail > accounts > add account > selected outlook option, but it says the Microsoft account doesn’t exist. So I tried to make a Microsoft account using the nscc email and it says you can’t make one with a school account. I just want all my calendars in one app. If anyone has found a work around, could you please share?
