Nipissing SPP 2021 Applicants

[MizVix]

In the spirit of the last two years applicant posts (which I found super helpful):

Hello all! I’ve applied to Nipissing's Scholar Practitioner Program for Fall 2021. I’m super excited/anxious about it and would love to connect with other students who have applied. 

How’s everything been going through your application process?

I got a conditional offer as well to Nipissing! I also got one from Western, but will be likely picking Nipissing over the other schools anyways.

Did anyone receive an acceptance? Apparently they released offers today. 

Mine still says “No Decision Made” and no other updates on the outstanding documents, although I have submitted this last week. Maybe they’re still updating the portal which is causing delay for some applicants?

Keep checking MizVix! I only received my offer later in the morning. You could also email Nipissing to ask if offers are being released on a rolling basis. Maybe this was the first wave. Good luck!

Congrats!! I'm planning on applying to Nipissing next year, would you feel comfortable disclosing your best 10 GPA? No worries if you don't!

I'm so sorry if I'm being annoying, but to everyone else who got accepted as well, would any of you also be comfortable with disclosing your best 10 GPA? ?

I’m not entirely sure, but somewhere in the 3.7-3.8 range.

Hey! Mine looks at top 20 since my school offers half credits not full. For my top 20 it was around 3.93/4

My school also went by half credits so my top 20 half credits (10 full) is a 3.5 on a 4.0. I have all of my prerequisites done (graduated with an honours kinesiology degree April 2020)! I also applied to UBC which ranks an applicants GPA, CASPer and supplemental application. My CASPer was ranked in the top 50% of the 900+ people that applied there so I think my CASPer score helped me A LOT. I received an offer to Nipissing Friday but still hoping to hear from Mac before I make a decision.

My best 10 GPA is around a 3.95. However, I do believe that Nipissing carries a strong emphasis on your CASPer score as well. Best of luck with your application journey ?
