Admission

Refer to 3.1 Admissions.

Accelerated Masters Program

Students entering their third year are encouraged to consider the possibility of continuing their education, by enrolling in a Masters degree program after completion of their BSc. By taking two or three courses (graduate or undergraduate) during their undergraduate program, which would be additional to their undergraduate degree program requirements, students will position themselves to be able to complete their Masters degree in 12 to 16 months after completion of their BSc. Students considering this possibility must consult with the Associate Head, Undergraduate Studies or the Department Head and should review the Faculty of Graduate Studies admission requirements.
