Admission Requirements:

Students entering the Bachelor of Science program are required to complete English 110, along with specific science courses, which vary depending on the student's intended major. (See below for details.) Prerequisites for English 110 are 73% on combined English 12 and Government exam in the last five years, or Level 4 on the composition section of the Language Proficiency Index (within the last 2 years) or completion of English 060 or completion of CESL 057 and CESL 058 with a grade of B- or better.

Bachelor of Science majors have specific first year course requirements. It is strongly recommended that students become familiar with the prerequisite requirements for these courses before applying for admission. In general, the minimum prerequisite requirements for BSc programs are as follows:

Major

Prerequisites

Biology (all Majors)

General Science

Chemistry

Environmental Chemistry

Chemistry 11 or Chem 050

Principles of Math 12 with C+ or better within the past 2 years or equivalent

Physics 11 or Physics 113

Computing Science

Mathematics

Mathematical Sciences

Physics

Chemistry 11 or Chem 050

Principles of Math 12 with C+ or better within the past 2 years or equivalent

Physics 11 or Physics 113

These are the minimum requirements. Several major programs recommend courses with more stringent prerequisite requirements. Prospective students should become familiar with the course requirements for their intended major and consult the individual course descriptions for specific prerequisite requirements.

Students may upgrade their prerequisites while enrolled in the Bachelor of Science program.

To ensure a good selection of courses, it is recommended that applicants apply as soon as possible after October 1.

Applicants should be aware that timetabling and registration workshops are available on-line (www.cariboo.bc.ca) for help in determining courses required. Applicants can also take advantage of the Step One and Group Advising sessions offered throughout the school year to help make the process of applying and determining program requirements easier to understand.
