Sure, we can tell you about our beautiful surroundings and how our students rate us #1 in several student satisfaction surveys, or how our residences are the rated the best in Canada according to the Globe & Mail, but the best way to experience Nipissing is by visiting us. All three campuses - North Bay, Muskoka and Brantford - offer unique learning opportunities, academic excellence and a warm, friendly atmosphere. See the Campus menu (top) for more information.

While the roots of Nipissing University extend back to the 1900's with the North Bay Normal School, Nipissing University College was formed in 1967 as an affiliate of Laurentian University. Nipissing University received its charter as an independent University in 1992. Today, Nipissing is proud to be a primarily undergraduate university with a reputation for excellence in teacher education, arts, science and professional programs. Students will find themselves in a high quality academic environment that is student-focused and based on personal teaching practices, innovative approaches to learning, and a growing research culture. Nipissing is committed to playing a positive role in the educational, social, cultural and economic life in all of the communities it serves."

At this University, the blend of inspiring educators and a tailored learning atmosphere has propelled my child's academic journey to new heights; I couldn't be more grateful!

Thank you Nipissing University and all your staff for a great 4 years and I appreciate all you have given me and what i am able to take forward.

Very unresponsive advisory, hard to get information or have them pick up the phone. I`m not sure why would it be so hard to answer the questions asked.

Amazing university experience. Wonderful students, staff and professors. I had an overwhelmingly positive university experience here and would recommend it to anyone. As for the nay sayers in the reviews, your experience is what you make of it, but you will never have more opportunities than at Nip U.

An excellent learning institution, with knowledgeable professors and relevant courses. I am taking my Master's of Education and have had a most wonderful experience thus far.

Extremely bad service from Academic Advisory. They took 14 days to reply one email and they never picked up the call even I left 4-5 voice mails on different dates. Because they took 14 days and didn't respond me on time even I requested them it cost me semester delay and I have to miss my course which offered once a year. Never recommend anyone to go Nipissing University through Academic Advisor. Except Academic Advisor I think their instructor are very good and helpful. I would love to continue with Nipissing University but never with this kind of service with Academic Advisor
