Exams

Most Nipissing University courses will have a final exam. As a CPP student, you must choose the correct course section, 881, 822, 823, 826, 828 in order to write your exams at your college location. If you do not choose the section codes above, you will be required to schedule your own location and proctor to write your exam and you will be required to pay the fee for that service. There will be a deadline date to schedule the exam locations and proctors. Failure to do so, will result in you writing your exam in North Bay at the scheduled date and time.

Blackboard

Blackboard Learn is an easy-to-use, interactive browser-based course environment. You can download the Blackboard app through the app store to access the software on your mobile device or tablet.
