Abstract: An asymptotic analysis is used to derive a set of diffusion approximations to the nonclassical transport equation with isotropic scattering. These approximations are shown to reduce to the simplified P

_{N}

equations under the assumption of classical transport, and therefore are labeled nonclassical SP

_{N}

equations. In addition, the nonclassical SP

_{N}

equations can be manipulated into a classical form with modified parameters, which can be implemented in existing SP

_{N}

codes. Numerical results are presented for an one-dimensional random periodic system, validating the theoretical predictions.
