Maybe some upper years can help me with this.
How many units of electives do nurses need for all four years? I was under the impression that it was one elective per year but now im getting confused lol.

Thanks for the help!

The undergraduate calendar will be your friend throughout university. It is updated each year. You should be able to find answers to most of your questions regarding courses, admission policies, regulations, etc.

Follow this link to the 2011-2012 McMaster Undergraduate Calendar, Basic Nursing Stream curriculum information: http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /CALENDAR/2011-12/pg1358.html

I read on the undergraduate timetable that we have to do eighteen units of electives but that is different than what i have heard

Being in fourth year, how many have you had to do?

Unfortunately, I do not have an answer to your question because I was in the Accelerated stream and did not take any electives (I'm graduating this month). Since program requirements can change, it is best to find the most up-to-date and reliable information (E.g., the 2011-2012 Undergraduate Calendar). The School of Nursing website also has a list of people you can contact if you have questions. The staff are very helpful.

Its 1 (3 units) in first and second year, and 4 (12 units) spread between third and fourth year (ie you can take 2 in each year or 3 in third and 1 in fourth etc)
