Student Maintenance of Standing Requirements

Students are responsible for their maintenance of standing while enrolled in the Langara College Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) or in the Advanced Entry BSN.

Students enrolled in the BSN or the Advanced Entry BSN are advised that progression in both programs requires all students to maintain a 2.33 cumulative GPA with no grade lower than "C+" for all program courses.
