1. A prospective student presenting more than two half-course equivalent transferable courses from a post-secondary institution (including the University of Calgary), and applying to transfer into the BComm program, must first successfully complete a minimum of three prescribed full-course equivalents by the end of the Winter Term (January - April) of the year of application.
Assistance in program planning is available through the office of the Associate Dean (Undergraduate Programs), Haskayne School of Business.
2. A maximum of two full-course equivalents with "D" or "D+" grades may be used to fulfill commerce requirements. The "D" or "D+" grades cannot be in prerequisite courses or in the junior English course. The minimum grade required in a prerequisite course is "C-", unless the course serves as the prerequisite to the concentration sought. In this case it must be a "C". The minimum grade required in the junior English course is a "C-".
3. Admission to the Haskayne School of Business will be based on the calculation of the grade point average over the most recent course work to a maximum of five full-course equivalents (University of Calgary courses and/or transfer courses taken at other institutions). All grades within a term will be included except where the number of courses taken within a term exceeds that required to fulfill (to a maximum of) five full-course equivalents, in which case the highest grades will be used. Spring Term courses taken after May 1 in the year of admission will not be used in the calculation of the grade point average.
4. Admission is competitive. For consideration, applicants must have a minimum grade point average of 2.50 (calculated as outlined in point 3. above). The final minimum average required to secure an offer of admission will be determined once the qualifications of the applicant pool have been assessed.
5. Transfer applicants must present official transcripts to the Office of the Registrar indicating time spent and grades received in all courses being presented to satisfy pre-commerce requirements or for advanced standing in the Bachelor of Commerce program.
6. Those applicants attending Spring Term in order to complete courses other than the three prescribed full-course equivalents mentioned above, if admitted, will be admitted provisionally subject to successful academic standing and continued compliance with program regulations.
7. Courses or their equivalents presented to fulfill pre-commerce requirements must not have been repeated more than once.
