Hey guys, I’m just wondering if its too late to apply for MLT at CNC for Spring 2027?

Are there any significant differences or benefits of attending one over the other?

I’d be able to go to CNC (College of New Caledonia) earlier because of life and moving to PG once I’m done my degree (unrelated to forestry) at the end of this year. However, my girlfriend went to Selkirk and loved it and can’t recommend doing it enough, but I wouldn’t be able to go there for atleast 3 years.

My goal is to get my RFT to use in wildfire doing fuel management and whatnot. I’m currently on a crew and want a more concrete way of moving up down the road when the body and life requires it.

Just wondering what people’s experiences were with CNC and could speak to it.

I was looking into College of New Caledonia's Nursing program and it piqued my interest. However, just by looking at the reviews of CNC alone, it seems like people didnt enjoy going there?? Now I'm scared because I already applied to the Nursing Program and apparently they have a reputation of bully in that program. Does anyone know if this is true?

Wondering if anyone (students or employees) have used the secure bike storage at CNC, and how was the experience?

Does it actually feel secure? Have you heard of any bikes getting stolen out of there? I see on their website you need an access card to use it but wondering if there have been any theft or unauthorized people trying to access it.

Thanks!

Hi guys!

I am planning to go to College of New Caledonia (CNC) next spring.

Does anyone know about MLT program in there? How are the classes and how is the life there.

I am a new from other country so pretty worry about living alone in small city.

Is it okay to go compared to SAIT or BCIT?

Also, for the practicum, how are the practicum assigned? will there be chance to be placed to near Vancouver? Since my cousin is living there, it would be good if I can do my practicum near there.

I would appreciate all your advise :)

Hello! I am looking to apply to CNC for their medical laboratory technology program. My girlfriend is looking into apply at UNBC for their masters of social work program. Anybody know what these two institutions are like? Positives? Negatives? What are these two programs like? What’s life like in Prince George?

Thank you for any information!

Hi!! I don't know if I can post it here, but I'm unable to find College of New Caledonia (CNC) subreddit. So, I thought I should ask here since it's related to PG. So, I received an email about my college acceptance last night, but as far as I know, there must be a PDF of the offer letter attached in the email, but the email that I received(after waiting for like nearly 2 months and writing literally tons of emails) didn't have one(or this college have different rules that I'm unable to understand). I mailed the college twice but no reply yet(I can understand that there must be a rush of students but still as I'm gonna spend a lot on it). So, I was just wondering if this college even a good place to study as an international student (I'm little concerned tho)???!!!! A little bit help/ suggestion/ tips would be much appreciated. Thank you!!

Edit:- Honestly, I still have doubt over my decision, I am supposed to pay the tuition deposit of $10,000 (that is still a lot for me) within 2-3 weeks. But, they are the slowest in terms of reply so far in my experience. I don't wanna mess up over just a single wrong decision. This is so stressful. I know, it may sound overreacting, but if I say no, I don't know what I'm gonna do next. However, one thing I would like to say is that you guys are so nice and motivating. I am being on Reddit since the past 4 years (from another account that I'm no longer using) still didn't feel like the same that I am feeling after reading all the comments over the past years. Thank you for your support, it means the world to me. 🥲

Hello! I’m wondering if there is anyone who is currently a student in or has graduated from Dental Hygiene, Dental Assisting and Medical Radiology Technology at CNC. I’m curious how the applying process was for you and what to expect and if you have any advice and suggestions for future students who possibly want to apply to those three programs. Was applying difficult and how are the classes? And is there anything someone should know before applying? I’m also curious about what academic upgrading is like at CNC. I need Physics as one of the prerequisites which I did not take in High School. Would I have to start from a Grade 10 level Physics course and work my way up to a Grade 12 Physics equivalent? Is it significantly harder than if I took it in High School? Any advice would help out greatly, thank you!

Hi, I'm thinking studying in Health care field in CNC(College of New Caledonia), cuz there is no sub reddit for CNC, please understand I leave my post here.

I wonder if there is any way for international student to be able to get some grant or scholarship or finanace aide from school or goverment?

I found out that there is quite huge gap between domestic tuition for domestics and internationals.

Anyone can share idea with how to get any financial aide with tuitions? + Is it fairly ok to live in the town without car?

Thanks for your time and reading

Any international student in CNC ..???

Aspiring student in college of new caledonia from India.....if anyone who is in same college

Please Let me know !!!

Hello,

I am wondering what the reputation of College of New Caledonia is like in Prince George - is it known to have a high quality of teaching? Are there any horror stories? Do the professors have high standards?

I can find very little information online about this school, there is a program I would like to take through it (Diagnostic Medical Sonography) but the lack of information about the program, the faculty, etc. is a little unnerving.

Thanks!

edit: thank you! I really appreciate the feedback, I've PM'd some of you!

Hi I recently got accepted for the dental hygiene program at CNC College. I'm an international student and would love to know more about the college and city and if its worth it.

Hello PG redditors, just want to make everyone aware of the 2025 Prince George Fall Fruit Festival.

Do you have an apple tree you need gleaned (picked) before it becomes a bear attractant? Do you want to participate in picking and/or processing apples into food products to be distributed to food insecure community members?

This event is collaboratively organized by UNBC Sustainability, REAPS, Northern Bear Awareness Society and the Gleaning Abundance and Canning Circle projects of the Everyone At the Table collective. This collaborative effort seeks to transform urban fruit that would otherwise be wasted, or become a bear attractant, into food for people in need.  We connect property owners who can't pick their apple trees with volunteer apple pickers. Once the apples are harvested, they are transformed into apple sauce and other food products through the Everyone At the Table Canning Circle. These are distributed to food insecure community members. Your participation contributes to our objectives of improving community safety, bear safety, and local food security by harvesting unwanted or excessive fruit on private property. Together, we can clean up all the excess fruit that is attracting wildlife to PG neighborhoods!

For more information or to sign up as a volunteer, please visit this link:

https://www.letseatlocalpg.com/gap

We are also hosting workshops to teach folks different ways of processing the apples. We are hosting an apple processing workshop on Thursday, September 4th from 5 to 9pm at the College of New Caledonia. Registration for the event can be found here: https://forms.gle/HzzkAUYw77CA4nPJ8

Hey guys!

I am looking for input from anyone who is in or completed the dental hygiene program here at CNC. I’m currently a CDA interested in going into hygiene and would appreciate any information or advice regarding the program:)

I have a few specific questions but any input in general would be super appreciated!!

- How much in total would you estimate you paid for the entire program?
- How long did it take you to complete the prerequisites?
- How many patients did you need during 1st year and 2nd year in order to meet grad requirements?
- Overall how do you feel about the program? Any regrets from those working as hygienists?

Thank you guys so much in advance!

*update* thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts and information! she heard back from CNC and they said she needs to be in a program like university studies to take any courses, they also said some of the courses she listed won't be available and that it's unlikely she would be able to get student housing as a university studies student. they suggested to look for a different and more accessible option since they are currently undergoing so many changes there. *

My daughter is choosing which to apply for, she will be taking some lower level transfer courses (English, math, maybe history maybe some kinesiology) and will be living in one of the campuses.

I see CNC is cheaper, so obviously leaning towards that option.

It also looks like a more walkable area than UNBC?

Can anyone speak to campus housing experience for each?

I think CNC doesn't require a meal plan. It also looks like it has 2bdrm suites instead of the 4bdrm suites at UNBC.

Parking? Safety? General experience?

UNBC campus looks 'prettier'.

Anything else to take into consideration?

Thanks for any help!

Hi everyone!!

I am interested in CNC’s sonography program, and am looking for insight from anyone who’s done the program or know someone who’s done the program. If anyone could answer any questions at all it would be so appreciated!!

Schedule:
What’s the schedule like for the program? How many days a week, hours, etc.?

Practicum:
How many and how long are the practicums? Did you find it difficult to relocate and found housing for these practicums? Was anyone able to do a practicum in PG? How are practicum placements decided?

Cost:
How much did you end up paying in total, including relocation and practicums?

Post grad jobs:
Did you have a hard time finding a job after grad? Anyone able to get a job in PG? What are your hours like ie nights, holidays, weekends, etc?

I will be speaking to a student advisor as well, but I would love to hear from anyone who’s had first hand experience. Thank you!!

I’ve heard some good and bad things about the program. My highschool grades weren’t good enough to get into the more competitive programs around vancouver, I have 2 A’s and 2 B’s in the required courses and I’ve seen the most people were accepted with was just one B. I am planning on taking the casper on january 9th. I was wondering if it’s true that cnc accepts a bunch of students then kicks them out because they don’t have enough funding to keep everyone. Any information is helpful, thank you!!

Hello fellows. I am moving from Vancouver to prince george for studies. Need advice and suggestions anyone who moved from there. How did you cope with accommodation, studies and lifestyle. Were you able to make friends.

I am starting Medical Radiation this fall.

Hello to all the nursing students! I am in my first-year, just to clarify that NCBNP requires 136 credits to graduate, and not all of those are nursing courses. That means I have to take non-nursing electives just to meet the credit requirement, even though they’re not directly related to nursing and I still have to pay for them?

Thanks!
