Nipissing University welcomes applications from persons of diverse backgrounds. We recognize that there are institutional processes and cultural differences that present barriers to some applicants obtaining access to programs. The School of Social Work is committed to diversity, equity and accessibility. Approximately 10% of the places in the Bachelor of Social Work (Professional Years) program are reserved each year for students from groups including, but not limited to, Indigenous peoples, persons with disabilities, economically disadvantaged, Franco-Ontarians, visible minorities, LGBTQ+ and those from northern/remote/rural areas. Applicants who are members of one or more of these groups are encouraged to self-identify.
