Nipissing SPP 2021 Applicants

Published

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?

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. 

May I ask how did you find your CASPer ranking?

UBC ranks all of their applicants and then you’re provided with a rank of 1-4 based on where you fall within the application pool for your GPA, CASPer score and supplemental application! I wish more schools did it that way

Thank you!! Congratulations and I hope you get good news from Mac!

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 ?

Thanks!! Best of luck to you as well!

I received a conditional offer but I finished my degree last year. Does anyone know where I could access the offer letter? Or what the conditions offer? Thank you and congrats everyone!

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? ? 

My bachelor's is from my home country and we do half credits there. I wasn't sure how to convert to Nipissing grades but my top20 average is an A. Which could be a 3.7+.

As for my CASPer, I was so nervous however, I feel confident I did well. I wish there's a way to see how we fared in that test. 

I am still waiting for UofT and McMaster. I love the Nipissing program and I'm very happy for the conditional offer (I am currently taking AP). Hoping to get UofT as well because there are much more financial support/scholarships compared to Nipissing. 

If you are still waiting for results, don't lose hope! It's still early ? Wish everyone all the best!

I just received an email for my conditional offer! I guess they are not sending it by mail, like WebAdvisor says. 

Keep an eye out for yours! ?
