Admission requirements and process
If you are currently a 91社区 undergraduate student and wish to transfer to the Bachelor of Arts & Science from another degree, you will need to apply for an Inter-Faculty Transfer.
The B.A. & Sc. degree, jointly offered through the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Science, is designed for students who have clearly-defined interests in both Arts and Science. While the degree provides a broad education that includes in-depth study of disciplines in both Faculties, the number of elective courses a student can take is limited. Students entering the B.A. & Sc. program therefore must know in precisely which disciplines they wish to focus. Note that students who intend to pursue graduate studies in science or to attend medical school may have to complete additional courses as electives or beyond the basic degree requirements.
This is the right degree for students who are firmly committed to such a disciplinary duality. By the same token, it is the wrong choice for students who are undecided between Arts or Science disciplines. Because the B.A. & Sc. is intended for students with well-defined interdisciplinary interests, it is not meant as a "compromise" between a B.A. and a B.Sc. degree. If you are more interested in聽Arts, but would like to study some Science, you can do so within the B.A. degree. Similarly, if you are more interested in聽Science, but would like to study some Arts, you can do so within the B.Sc. degree.
Online application
Students interested in the Bachelor of Arts & Science will apply as 鈥渦ndeclared.鈥� This means you must select the B.A. & Sc. as a choice on the application, but you do not need to choose a program stream or specific discipline. If admitted to the B.A. & Sc. degree, you will be able to declare your program(s) at the start of your U1 year.
For general guidance on completing the online application, please see below, under Admission requirements and process.
On the "Program Selection" page of the application:
Choose the Interfaculty, Bachelor of Arts & Science: Undeclared.
A list of program streams and disciplines will appear below, but you will not make a selection on the application.
Interested in a second application choice?
Once you have submitted your application to the B.A. & Sc. and paid the application fee, you can submit a second application for another Faculty or degree at no extra cost. Both applications must be for the same term and level of study (undergraduate), and must be submitted before the application deadline. Thereafter, each additional application submitted will incur an additional application fee.
The order of your choices is not important. All your choices will be considered independently and you will receive admission decisions for each.
Admission requirements and process
Admission review for all Faculty of Science degrees, including the B.A. & Sc., is managed by 91社区's central Admissions Office in Enrolment Services, not by the Faculty of Science. Admission requirements, deadlines and processes are detailed on their website and admission questions should be directed to the appropriate Admissions Contacts.
