We've compiled answers to frequently asked questions from our new students. Can't find an answer to your question? Contact our administrative assistant, Alicia Jones at nursingmoncton@unb.ca.

Moncton site

  • Each student will be issued an access card for entering the building (also the parking lot, if parking has been purchased).
  • Entry is via access card only.
  • Cards are non-transferrable.
  • Cards lost or stolen must be reported to the main office immediately.
  • No fee for initial card but $20.00 for any replacement

Hours of entry will be posted on the UNB Moncton Student Sharepoint as well as in multiple places within the building. Students will be notified by email of any changes to the posted hours.

Our process is currently changing, email nursingmoncton@unb.ca to find out more information.


You can purchase a parking pass online.  

  • If you wish to register more than 1 vehicle or if you think you’ll change vehicles at any point during the year please select the hanging tag option
  • Add and/or update your current vehicle information. Your permit is valid in Moncton, Fredericton, and Saint John therefore it is important to ensure the proper vehicle information is in the system.
  • Select UCard as your payment option. In order to pay with a credit card or your Visa debit card, you must transfer money from your card to your UCard cash account. You do not need to have a physical UCard in order to do this. If you need to add money to your UCard account, select "add money" and follow the prompts; your funds will be available immediately once transferred. You can choose to add the exact amount of the permit you will be purchasing (cost as shown on the form) or some extra funds that can be used at the Moncton site for print credits.
  • Select "mail" as the delivery option. These will be sent to the Moncton site main office. Office hours are 8:30 a.m. –12 p.m and 1 p.m. – 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Please allow 1-2 business days for the processing of your request.

49 students are accepted into Year 1 and take their theory courses together. For clinical courses, after the initial orientation, clinical groups are formed in varying student numbers based on placement venue.

If you have an online class, Microsoft 365 Teams will be used and is available off your UNB portal for download to your personal device. It can also be used within a browser.


The textbooks for our program are coordinated by our faculty. This means most required textbooks/lab kits will be used in more than one course throughout the two years of your program.
