When you choose languages
On the application or after — the Bachelor of Arts (PA, 70% minimum) is a genuinely undeclared door, and you choose a major from the twenty inside it.
What to watch for
Nipissing has no modern-languages major. Classical Studies and Religions and Cultures, inside the Bachelor of Arts, are the nearest. Nipissing admits to the Bachelor of Arts as one OUAC code, PA, at a 70% minimum, and nearly every arts major is chosen inside it rather than applied to separately. Only Criminal Justice (PAJ) and History with Orientation to a Master's (PAH, 80%, limited enrolment) have their own codes. Nipissing's own concurrent-education listings describe the BA entry as 'Undeclared'.
The same application also gets you to
Bachelor of Arts is the entry point for 9 other majors at Nipissing. You are not choosing between these at application time.
