What to watch for
Nipissing has eighteen concurrent BEd codes open from Grade 12 at 70%, pairing the BEd with an undeclared BA (PE, PEA, PEB), Criminal Justice (PED, PEF, PEG), Fine Arts (PEH, PEI, PEK), Business (PEL, PEM, PEN), Physical and Health Education (PEO, PEQ, PER) and Science (PES, PET, PEU), each in Primary/Junior, Junior/Intermediate or Intermediate/Senior. Two cautions in Nipissing's own words: the PHE streams are 'a highly competitive, limited-enrollment program' where 'the actual admission average may be higher', and the programme page itself warns that 'changes to the Teacher Education program are forthcoming. Information on this website is subject to change.' Confirm the current structure with Nipissing before you apply.
