Co-op diploma graduates will receive a block of credits equal to COMS1100, COMS2101 and COMS3101; the four career-related courses; and two electives as specified in the CBU calendar. Transfer students will be required to successfully complete seven degree courses (42 credits) as follows:

 

  • Four courses (24 credits) in Community Studies (COMS1100, COMS2101/COMS3101, COMS2103 and COMS2105 and COMS3103 and COMS3105)
  • Four courses (6 credits) in any degree discipline other than Community Studies

Diploma students may also enroll concurrently in certain diploma and degree courses with the permission of the school dean.
