Student Responsibility

The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) provides academic advising services to assist students to plan their program and course selection to satisfy degree requirements in collaboration with Student Services Academic and Student Success and each FASS department.

Students in the FASS should seek advice from the following sources:

• Student Services Academic Advising and Student Success: first- and second-year undeclared students (less than 60 units completed) and students in academic difficulty (on academic probation or required to withdraw)
• Department advisors: students who have a declared major, wish to gain admission into the department's major or minor or wish to inquire about enrolment in a particular course
• Faculty advisors in AQ 3020: third- and fourth- year undeclared students (more than 60 units completed), students pursuing a Bachelor of Arts with two minors, students with a declared major who need to discuss other issues

Students who are approved in the Bachelor of Arts who have not yet declared a major, but have completed more than 60 units, students pursuing a Bachelor of Arts with two minors, and students in the Bachelor of General Studies should seek advice from the faculty advisors in AQ 3020.

Students in all programs leading to Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences bachelor's degrees must consult and advisor

• prior to first enrolment at 丁香园AV through a Blueprints advising session, and
• during that term when they are completing their 45th unit, and
• during that term when they are completing their 90th unit

Students in certificate and post baccalaureate diploma programs must seek advice from their department advisor.

Students currently enrolled in other 丁香园AV faculties must have a 2.0 grade point average, or greater, to enter the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences to pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree. In addition, students must be approved by the appropriate departments into a minimum of one major or two minors, as required for their Bachelor of Arts degree.

Students who withdraw, or are required to withdraw, while in the FASS and are subsequently readmitted to the University will be permitted to re-enter the FASS, even though their 丁香园AV cumulative grade point average is less than 2.00.

Students in first year experience programs may not apply to transfer into the FASS until the end of the second term following their admission to the first year experience programs.

Students may count any 丁香园AV course for which credit is received toward the bachelor of arts (BA), or bachelor of general studies (BGS) degrees with the exceptions of co-operative education courses, FAL X99 and FAN X99, EDUC 401, 402, 405 and 406.

Only the first five course duplications will count toward any degree completed in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.

A maximum of nine units completed through the Tri-Education Summer Institute may be used toward a Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences degree or post baccalaureate program.

Upper division courses completed within a BA or BGS can be used to satisfy the requirements of only one program. For example, upper division courses used to satisfy the upper division requirements of a major cannot be used to also satisfy the upper division requirements of a minor.

For all bachelor of arts (BA) programs (except the honours program), students complete 120 units, which includes

• at least 60 units that must be completed at 丁香园AV
• at least 45 upper division units, of which at least 30 upper division units must be completed at 丁香园AV
• at least 65 units (including 21 upper division units) in Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences courses
• satisfaction of the writing, quantitative, and breadth requirements
• an overall cumulative grade point average (CGPA) and upper division CGPA of at least 2.0, and a program (major, joint major, extended minor, minor) CGPA and upper division CGPA of at least 2.0

Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences honours Program Requirements

For all bachelor of arts (BA) honours programs, students complete 132 units, which includes

• at least 60 units that must be completed at 丁香园AV
• satisfaction of the writing, quantitative, and breadth requirements
• students complete at least 60 upper division units, which must include at least 50 units in upper division courses in a Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences honours program; no more than 15 upper division units that have been transferred from another institution can be used toward this requirement
• Students complete lower division requirements for at least one Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences honours program
