Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Neuroscience - Honours

Program Admissions Information

For Faculty of Science admission information see 3.2 Admission.

Admission to Concentrations

Neuroscience students can apply to a concentration online through their Student Centre from October 1-February 1 for admission the following fall. The concentrations are optional and not required for program completion. Students can apply after their first year and up until their final year. To be admitted to the concentration, students must have completed 18 units, before the February 1 deadline. In addition, students will require a competitive GPA, which will be determined annually and calculated using the most recent course work. Concentrations have limited spaces that are determined annually depending on course availability and enrolment caps. See A.5.3.1 Transfer Admission Requirements for GPA computation guidelines.

Student Standing

Any student in an Honours program is subject to the provisions for continuation in an Honours program, Subsections 3.2 and 3.4. Honours students in the Neuroscience program who do not qualify for continuation in honours will be moved into the Neuroscience BSc program.

Note: Students in Neuroscience may take no more than 36 units that would fulfill major field requirements in Biological Sciences programs or the Psychology program respectively. Students who wish to transfer out of Neuroscience into either Biological Sciences or Psychology must apply to transfer by the application deadline and will be able to take more such courses once admitted to their new program.
