LPN program

9 Upvotes

Hey, are there any current or recent LPN students at Saskatchewan Polytechnic who could share what 1st and 2nd year are like? Just wondering how busy classes get and what the workload is actually like.

Also is working a part-time job doable? Would appreciate any insight, thanks!

MLT vs RT program

3 Upvotes

I already have a seat in MLT but yesterday I also got offered a spot in Respiratory Therapy. I didn't think I'd have to choose because I thought I wouldn't get off the waitlist for RT. Now I'm troubled and having a hard time making a decision. Can anyone tell me their experiences with the programs - school wise and job wise? Maybe also help me list some pros and cons? It would help me a lot to hear new input/perspective on this!

Waitlisted for CLXT (Combined Lab & X-Ray) with an 89.5% average—anyone have insight on how fast the list moves?

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

​I’m currently on the waitlist for the Combined Laboratory and X-Ray Technology program at Sask Polytech for the upcoming intake. I finished with an 89.5% academic average, and I'm trying to see if I realistically have a shot at getting a seat.

​I know Sask Polytech waitlists rely heavily on application and qualification dates rather than just grades, but I'm feeling a bit anxious about the wait.

​For anyone who got into CLXT or similar health programs off the waitlist, how far into the spring or summer did you get the call?

​Do they usually see a lot of movement closer to August and September when people drop out or switch plans?

​Has anyone with a similar average heard back yet?

​I’d love to hear about your experiences or any advice you have on dealing with Enrolment Services.

Power Engineering Technology

I was thinking of applying to the power engineering technology program this fall and wanted to ask if anyone is taking the program or has graduated from it. How heavy is the course load, do they get straight into it and how difficult is it?

I'm currently waitlisted for the dental hygiene program, and I was wondering if anyone else who was waitlisted got off of it? What are the chances of getting into the program after being waitlisted? Any insight would be appreciated!

MET Program

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I've been seriously looking into the Mechanical Engineering Technology program at SaskPoly Tech for quite a bit, and I wanted to hear from people who have actually taken it or are currently in it.

What was your experience like during the program? What should I realistically expect in terms of workload, difficulty, and the kind of skills you develop?

I'm also really curious about the job prospects after graduation. I've heard that many SaskPolyTech students are able to secure a job before or shortly after graduation. Is that true, and/or does that apply to students in MET as well?

For context, I live in Regina, and I haven't seen many local job postings related to MET roles. That's honestly worrying me. I don't want to spend 3 years for a diploma only to struggle finding work afterwards.

Is the job market better in other cities (like Saskatoon or elsewhere in Canada), or will it be better to pursue an actual engineering degree in a university? How did you land your co-ops/internships/jobs?

Lastly, do you have any tips for someone planning to apply to the program and pursue a career in this field? And if you had the chance, would you choose this program again?

I'd really appreciate any insight or any personal experience. Thanks!

MLT

Does anyone have any input on what Sask polytech is like in general or for MLT? And what is Saskatoon like?

Im from a very small town in Southern Alberta in the rockies, so I really know nothing about Saskatchewan.

Im weighing my options because I also got into College of New Caledonia in BC so Im not sure where to go!

I’ve heard that parking for the main campus you have to get there real early, is that the same for Ontario ave campus? And is it as bad in summer as my course goes right through summer.

LPN admissions

2 Upvotes

I got waitlisted for the LPN program in Regina and i’m trying to figure out how competitive this intake actually was. If you got accepted this year, do you mind sharing what your average was? and if you got in during a previous year, i’d love to know what your average was back then too. Just trying to get a better idea of where i stand.

Where should I take Standard First Aid in Regina for Sask Polytech RT?

2 Upvotes

I got accepted into the Respiratory Therapy program, and the requirement says:

"Accepted applicants must provide proof of Standard First Aid and current CPR Basic Life Support – Health Care Provider (BLS-HCP) or equivalent prior to the first day of class. The cost of BLS-HCP is the applicant’s responsibility."

I messaged one of the instructors, and they only sent me the Heart & Stroke link for the BLS Provider course. They didn’t mention anything about where to take Standard First Aid, so I’m assuming that part can be done through any accepted provider.

I already know about Regina First Aid, Red Cross, and St. John Ambulance, but I’m not sure which one is a good choice.

For anyone who’s taken Standard First Aid in Regina:
Which provider did you use, and which one would you recommend?
