News Release

*********************

Displaying remarkable consistency, Nipissing University students have again placed their school at the top of the charts in the Globe and Mail's annual survey of undergraduate students, the Canadian University Report, released today.

For the second consecutive year, Nipissing is the only university among the Small, Medium and Large schools to garner an A+ for Student - Faculty interaction. Nipissing's residences also held onto their top-place ranking for the third year in a row, garnering the highest mark, an A, given to any university in any category.

The university earned an A+ in two key categories: Student Faculty Interaction and Class Size. Nipissing earned an A in many important categories, including: Most Satisfied Students, Quality of Education and Student Residences.

Nipissing's results mirror the excellent results of previous years, with first-place grades in the small university category in eight out of the 19 categories, including those listed above as well as in Quality of Teaching (A-) and Student Services (B+).

The 2008 Canadian University Report surveyed 43,400 current undergraduate students from across Canada. Universities are grouped into four categories: large, with enrolment over 22,000; medium, with enrolment between 12,000 and 22,000; small, with enrolment between 4,000 and 12,000; and very small, with enrolment under 4,000. Nipissing University is in the small university category.
