French Language Placement Test

The French program is designed to expand on the knowledge of the French language first acquired in elementary and secondary schools. All students who wish to take French courses at Nipissing University are required to complete the French Language Placement Test prior to registering in their first French course.  This test will evaluate the language competency of students and enable them to enroll in the appropriate language level. 

There will be an online test available between 1:00pm and 9:00pm on the following dates:

• Tuesday, July 14, 2020
• Thursday, July 16, 2020

Other Dates for Fall Term:

• Wednesday, July 22, 2020
• Wednesday, August 5, 2020
• Wednesday, August 19, 2020
• Wednesday, September 2, 2020
• Wednesday, September 9, 2020

The online test consists of 2 grammar sections and a composition section. You must complete the test BEFORE 9:00 pm as the test will not be accessible after this time. For the oral component of the test, you must make an appointment with the professor in charge. The oral test will be done through Blackboard Collaborate. 

The French Placement Test is divided into three components:

• Grammar (1 hour)
• Dictation and composition (15 minutes) 
• Oral interview (10 minutes)

Contact information:

Students who wish to register for the French Placement Test must send an email to Nicole Savage at nicoles@nipissingu.ca providing the following information:

• Student name
• Student ID number
• Student telephone number
• Test date requested  

Students will receive an email confirmation with their appointment time to do the oral test with Nicole Savage (between 1:00pm and 9:00pm).

The purpose of the French Placement Test is to assess some of the basic skills and abilities necessary to perform the tasks required in the French Courses.

Electives are courses taken outside of the program requirements, chosen by the student. Students often use elective credits to achieve additional goals such as majors, minors, certificates and/or teaching subjects. When trying to select electives, students can look at specific courses and course descriptions using WebAdvisor or the Academic Calendar.

The following course listings apply to all undergraduate students including students who are in Concurrent Education. All students in Concurrent Education are required to complete ACAD 1601, as well as MATH 1070 or 6 credits of Mathematics with a 4U prerequisite. In some programs, these credits are required for students regardless of if they are in Concurrent Education or not. In other programs, these credits will count as students’ Science credits or as electives. To see where these credits fit into your program, please review the information below. Additional information regarding upper year requirements for Concurrent Education, teaching subject requirements and divisions can be found in the Academic Calendar and will be discussed at New Student Orientation.

For a video to assist you in understanding your transfer credits, click here.

Mature students who qualify for admission can be admitted full-time on probation with a reduced course load to a maximum of 24 credits. Please review your offer of admission to see how many credits you will be permitted to take. If you will be taking a reduced load, you can still use the Guide to First Year Courses for Direct from High School Students below, however, prioritize your program requirements over the electives when selecting your courses. You may email advising@nipissingu.ca to request an advisor review your course selections or you can attend one of the live sessions for their program to ask an advisor questions. 

Guide To First-Year Course Selection for Direct from High School Students

In order to plan your courses, you will need to review your program of interest in the Academic Calendar, view the guide to first year courses for your program below, and print a Timetable Planner. Once you have reviewed what courses are required for your program, you can look on WebAdvisor to see what courses are available this year. Academic Advisors will be available during your NSO day to assist you in finalizing your first-year timetable. Bringing a completed or partially-completed timetable to your NSO day will ensure your day runs more smoothly.

Undeclared

Selecting courses with an Academic Advisor when you are an undeclared student is of particular importance. An Academic Advisor is knowledgeable about Nipissing’s undergraduate programs and will be able to suggest a number of academic programs based on your interests, assist you with exploring options for combining your interests, and will help you with keeping your options open to ensure the classes you pick as an undeclared student will have a place in the degree program you select later on.
