Bachelor of Science
90 credit and 120 credit degrees are available in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Psychology. There are four different categories of BSc programs: the 90 credit general program, the 120 credit major program, the 120 credit honours program and the four-year double major program. Students may specialize in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics or Psychology in either a three- or four-year Bachelor of Science (BSc.) program.
Students may choose to enter any of the Bachelor of Science (BSc.) program options when they begin their Bachelor of Science (BSc.). Those who begin in the 90 credit program may change to a 120 credit program at a later date, if they meet program requirements for average and grades. Students who begin in a 120 credit program must attain the required average and grades to remain in the program. Students planning to take a calculus course must write the Calculus Readiness Test.
Admission Requirements for Bachelor of Science
Admission Requirements
Required: Five Grade 12 advanced or academic courses including English; two Sciences (one of which must be Biology, Chemistry, or Physics); and Mathematics or Pre-Calculus Mathematics with an overall average of at least 65%. Recommended: Pre-Calculus Mathematics.
Students may substitute one Grade 12 open course for one advanced or academic course, except where a particular course is specified. Environmental Science 12 may be used as the second science with Biology, Chemistry or Physics.
Note: Grade 12 Academic Chemistry is highly recommended for students considering specialty/major in the Biology or Chemistry program.
