Overview

This Bachelor of Commerce Honours program, delivered through the I.H. Asper School of Business, totals 120 credit hours across foundation courses, core business requirements, a major, business electives and open electives. The Generalist major requires 12 credit hours drawn from at least one required course in each of four different Asper majors, giving students breadth across business disciplines rather than a single specialization. Admission follows one of three routes: Direct Entry for high school applicants, requiring an 85% average across Pre-Calculus Mathematics 40S, English 40S and two other 40S courses with no less than 70% in any one course; Advanced Entry Track 1, requiring 24 specific credit hours with no grade below C and a minimum Admission GPA of 2.0; or Advanced Entry Track 2, requiring 24 or more credit hours and a minimum Admission GPA of 3.1. Degree completion requires a minimum Degree GPA of 2.00.
