Program details

Overview

Université de Saint-Boniface's Baccalauréat ès arts (B.A.) général is a three-year, 90-credit program delivered in person with a fall start and no mandatory practicum, allowing students to explore a range of subjects across the humanities, social sciences, and languages and literatures rather than commit to a single discipline from the outset. Students build a personalized program by combining a major (30 credits) with a minor (18 credits), or by completing a double major combining two 30-credit majors, choosing from disciplines offered through USB's Faculty of Arts. The program is designed to develop critical thinking, analytical skills, and a solid research methodology that can be applied across the social, political, cultural, and economic subjects studied. It suits students who want breadth before specializing, including those planning to move on to teaching, law, or graduate study, or anyone who prefers a flexible arts education that lets them combine interests across departments rather than following a single fixed subject track.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 85.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Direct entry from a Manitoba high school diploma (or an accepted equivalent from another Canadian province or territory) requires an overall average of at least 85% across three Grade 12 (40S) courses — Francais 40S plus two further 40S courses — with a minimum of 60% in each. Applicants who complete the Universite 1 pathway instead need at least 24 completed university credits before entering this degree. International students and others educated outside Canada must first complete Universite 1, following that program's own separate admission requirements, rather than applying directly to this degree. The programme page does not publish a French or English test-score minimum of its own; it instead directs applicants to Universite de Saint-Boniface's general admission conditions, which require a passed Francais 40S (or equivalent) for Canadian-schooled applicants and, for study-permit applicants, a standardized French test — DALF C1, DELF tout public B2, TCF B2 or TEF B2 — taken within the previous two years.

Application Details

Start Date: September
Application Deadline: Fall 2027 intake: application due 1 July 2027, supporting documents due 8 July 2027 (Faculty of Arts and Science).
