BA and BSc Regulations

Course Equivalency
Departments may, with the approval of the dean, recognize a specific course as the equivalent of a required course when a student has obtained satisfactory credit for the course at this or another institution.
Prohibition from Registration
1. A student deemed by the department offering a particular course to have the knowledge or skills taught in that course may be declared ineligible to register for credit in that course.
2. A student who has failed the equivalent of 2.0 junior credits in a subject, whether the failure occurred in the same course(s) or different course(s), will be barred from registering for credit in further junior courses in that subject, except by permission of the dean and of the department offering the subject.
Honours and General Courses
Several departments in each faculty offer a limited number of courses which are specifically intended for, and restricted to, honours students in the discipline. For these courses, all other students require special permission from the department concerned to register in the honours-level courses, but may take general-level equivalents where they exist.
Interdepartmental Programs
All requirements for the General BA degree apply and the co-ordinator of an interdepartmental program must authorize the student's major in writing. Permission to take individual courses is granted by the department or the co-ordinating committee offering the courses.
Archaeology and Classical Studies
Students may not count more than 3.0 credits of a program in Archaeology and Classical Studies toward another program in Archaeology and Classical Studies.
