See also 3.2 Admission and 3.7 Student Standing. Students may be directly admitted into the Neuroscience program and, once admitted, a place in this program is assured for students advancing through the second and subsequent years with satisfactory standing. Admission will be granted for Fall Term only and will be based upon academic merit. At the end of the first year and each subsequent year until graduation, students are subject to the provisions for continuation in an Honours program (see Section 3.2 Admission – Honours Programs. Students who do not qualify for continuation may transfer most readily into one of Natural Sciences, Biological Sciences or Psychology programs provided they meet the admissions requirements for those programs.

Strictly as space permits, the Program will admit students who transfer from other programs and institutions. Students requesting admission at this level are subject to the Honours qualifications as set out in 3.2 Admission – Honours Programs. and must meet additional criteria:

• Completion of Biology 231 and 233, Chemistry 201 or 211, Chemistry 203 or 213, Mathematics 211 or 213. One of Mathematics 249 or 251 or 281 or Applied Mathematics 217, and Psychology 205 with a grade of “C-” or better in each course.
• In the event that the number of transfer applicants exceeds the number that can be accommodated by available resources, students will be admitted to the Program in descending rank order of academic performance until the enrolment limit is reached.
• Academic performance will be measured on the basis of the grade point average calculated over the most recent 5 FCE for transferring into second year or the most recent 10 FCE for transferring into third year (����ɫ�� courses and/or transferable courses taken at other institutions). (New admissions to the University are always subject to A.2 "Admission Requirements" as stated in the Undergraduate Admissions section of this Calendar.)

Note: Students in Neuroscience students may take no more than 6 FCE that would fulfill major field requirements in Biological Sciences programs or the Psychology program respectively. Students who wish to transfer out of Neuroscience into either Biological Sciences or Psychology must apply to transfer by the application deadline and will be able to take more such courses once admitted to their new program.

See 3.2 Admission – Honours Programs for additional information.

2.5 FCE – Options

Hotchkiss Brain Institute

Throughout their time in the Neuroscience program, students are encouraged to attend seminars at the Hotchkiss Brain Institute. In their fourth year, students must register in Neuroscience 511.

International Component
��
This suggestion may be satisfied in various ways, e.g., by completing 1.0 FCE from the list of courses in item 4 of the section "Make Your Degree More International," under "About the University" in the Calendar, or by following one of the other suggestions listed there. If non-science course work is used to satisfy this recommendation, this course work could be part of the breadth requirement.

Optional courses

Students typically choose optional courses in consultation with a faculty mentor.

¹Chemistry 201 and 203 are offered both in Fall and Winter terms and students may do them in any order.

²Students who wish to complete a full year of Organic Chemistry may register in Chemistry 353 or 355.

³Since students complete Neuroscience 301 in Spring of their first year, this slot is left open.
