Hey! I've been hoping to find this as I saw it used other years. Very useful but also nerve-racking...

Graduating this month, A average, prerequisites done just need to graduate :)

So happy to see this here too!

I've applied to the SPP for 2016 entry. I have B average from my BSc at Western 12 years ago and a lot of work experience in a health care setting and the charitable sector. I also have professional research experience.

I'm currently working my way through A&P from Athabasca, hope to be finished by the deadline...

Good luck everyone :)

Hi all,

I just got a letter from Nipissing yesterday saying that I didn't provide evidence of prerequisites in progress and am therefore disqualified from consideration. Turns out my transcript from Ryerson that I sent in January after completing the first semester of A&P didn't include it, or mention that it was in progress. I even had my prof send a letter with my interim grade, and they said they couldn't count it because it wasn't an official document. No email to notify me that something was missing, or to state that there was confusion about my prereq enrolment or anything like that. When I talked to admissions on the phone this morning they said it was my fault for not calling or having the registrar of Ryerson send a letter. I said I sent the transcript through OUAC and didn't know that Ryerson didn't include courses in progress - how could I know? They said that on webadvisor the required documents are ticked off and I should have know from the absence of "in progress" written beside A&P. I said that I assumed it would be left blank until the course was completed. Basically I should have suspected that something was up on my own and corrected it myself before the deadline. I asked if I could be put back on the pile for consideration now that they know it was a mistake. The answer was no, there is nothing that can be done. So devastating. Bureaucracy is dehumanizing. U of T on the other hand, who I called right afterward, says they send out emails requesting forgotten documentation, and don't disqualify students on this type of basis. So surprised that U of T is more lenient about technicalities than Nipissing. Feeling so disheartened. Hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

I can understand how you feel right now.I found out Nipissing Uni is not lenient about technicalities last year.My friend had a similar issue and all they said was NO NO NO that she did not bit the deadline.

Did you apply to other schools?
