Requirements
Admission Requirements: The Computer Science programme page states only Nipissing's general undergraduate admission requirement and refers applicants to program-specific prerequisites without publishing them on the page itself; the university's general requirements page confirms the baseline is an Ontario Secondary School Diploma with six 4U/4M courses (equivalent credentials for out-of-province and international applicants). Applicants whose first language is not English must meet Nipissing's proficiency requirement: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 83 overall (minimum 20 in reading, listening and writing, 22 in speaking), PTE Academic 58 overall (minimum 56 per section), CAEL 60 overall with no band below 60, or Cambridge C1 176 overall (minimum 169).
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC): for most undergraduate programs starting September 2027 the application deadline is April 1, 2027 with supporting documents due April 9, 2027, part-time fall applicants have until August 4, 2027, and January 2027 entry closes November 13, 2026 (documents November 20, 2026). International applicants follow the same April 1, 2027 deadline for fall and November 13, 2026 for winter; Nipissing does not publish a spring/summer international deadline.
