Thank you for your application to the Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) and Centennial College Nursing Collaborative Program. We think you’ve made a great choice! If you’ve submitted your application, our Admissions team will be in touch via email very soon.
In the meantime, follow the steps below to ensure that your documents are received and to stay up-to-date on the status of your application.
If applying through ontariocolleges.ca (external link) , the Collaborative Nursing Program supplementary form must be completed by all applicants who aren't currently enrolled in full-time studies at an Ontario secondary school.
If you aren't a current Ontario secondary school student, please complete all sections of the Collaborative Nursing Program supplementary form and email the completed form to Centennial College at admissions@centennialcollege.ca.
Be sure to monitor your email account for updates on the status of your application. You'll be invited to create a ChooseTMU Applicant Portal where admission decisions are posted.
The majority of admission decisions are released between February and the end of May.
If you applied through ontariocolleges.ca (external link) and are selected for an offer or waitlist decision, you'll receive an email invitation from TMU requesting you activate your ChooseTMU Applicant Portal where this decision will be posted. All other decisions will be issued by Centennial College.
Please continue to visit your ChooseTMU Applicant Portal for updates on the status of your application.
Subject to final confirmation in June, tuition and ancillary fees for full-time attendance can be viewed on the tuition and fees by program page.
Step 1: Double-check your application
Did you forget anything?
- Have you listed every post-secondary school where you enrolled in one course or more? This is required regardless of its relevance to your application.
- Did you include a list of all your non-academic activities (e.g. employment, volunteer work, travel, etc.) from year to year? Your list must be from the end of secondary school to your expected start date. This isn't required for current Ontario secondary school students. If there’s a timeframe when you didn’t participate in any activities and didn’t attend school, you must state "no activities."
- Applying for readmission? You must include an outline of your activities since you were last enrolled in your program and submit updated academic transcripts (if applicable).
Need to make changes to your application?
Do you need to make edits to your application, such as changing your program choices or contact information? These changes must be made as soon as possible to avoid missing any deadlines. Here’s how:
- If you applied via the Ontario Universities’ Application Centre (OUAC), make your changes in your OUAC account (external link) .
- If you applied via ontariocolleges.ca for the Collaborative Nursing Program, make your changes in your ontariocolleges.ca account (external link) .
- All other applicants must complete the TMU change form.
