Casper
In addition to submitting an application, applicants are required to complete an online, video-scenario, situational judgement test called Casper. Casper testing takes place outside of the MScFN application.
NOTE: Applicants must add Western University, Brescia School of Food and Nutritional Sciences: Master of Science in Foods and Nutrition (MScFN) to their Casper distribution in order for their scores to be sent directly to us from Casper.
Applicants must use the same name and email address on the Casper as they do on their MScFN application.
Failing to enter correct and identical information may mean we are unable to match an applicant’s Casper results with their MScFN application. In this case, we will consider an application incomplete, and the application will be disqualified from further consideration.
We will not consider applicants with incomplete or missing Casper scores.
Note: Altus Suit Snapshot or Duet is not required for application to this program.October 9, 2025 (8:00pm EDT)
