To qualify for graduation a student must have completed an approved program of at least 20 full courses or their equivalent. A minimum grade point average of 2.00 must be attained in the overall program of study, and a minimum grade point average of 2.00 must be attained in courses in the major area of study, with the exception of the BA Honours (Music) which requires a minimum grade point average of 3.00 in the overall program of study, and a minimum grade point average of 3.00 in the major area of study. This latter calculation will include only those major area courses actually required in the program. It will exclude major area courses presented as Fine Arts options in the Art and Drama programs.

All grades in all Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà courses (including original grades in repeated courses) are used in the calculation of the overall (cumulative) and major grade point averages, regardless of a student's previous faculty of registration or previous status as an Open Studies and/or Visiting Student.

In courses offered by the Faculty of Fine Arts, normally a grade of "C-" or better must be earned in order that the course may serve as prerequisite to another course. Exceptions to this regulation may be made only in unusual circumstances and at the discretion of the Department offering the course work.

Regulations governing the content of approved programs are detailed elsewhere.

Degrees "With Distinction" are awarded by the Faculty of Fine Arts. Normally the last 10 full-course equivalents should be work completed on this campus.

The notation "With Distinction" will be entered in the permanent record and on the graduation parchment of a student who completes a major program with a grade point average of 3.50 in his/her final 15 full-course equivalents. In cases in which the "last 15" must include some but not all of a group of courses taken concurrently, the selection will be made in the manner most advantageous to the student. A student who has taken part of his/her course work at another post-secondary institution or who has transferred to the Faculty at a relatively late stage may be granted a degree "With Distinction" at the discretion of the Faculty.

Students may formally declare a Minor Field, in addition to declaring a Major Field, and have this officially recorded on their transcript of record provided they satisfy the requirements for the relevant Minor Field program. This declaration must be made not later than the time of their last registration. Students registered in the Faculty of Fine Arts intending to declare a Minor Field outside of the Faculty of Fine Arts must satisfy the Minor Field requirements of the relevant faculty.

All students who declare Minor Fields in Fine Arts subjects must satisfy specific program requirements before the Minor Field may be awarded. See "Program Details".
