Admission

In order to be admitted to the Minor, student must have successfully completed a minimum of 15 units (2.5 full-course equivalents). Additionally, students require a minimum GPA of 3.00 calculated using the most recent course work to a maximum of 30 units. See A.5.3 for GPA computation guidelines.

Students must apply online via their Student Centre.

Students will be considered for admission on a competitive basis, and meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission.
