Arts Degree Requirements

Bachelor of Arts

Second Bachelor of Arts Degrees

Students may pursue a second BA in one of the following ways:

  • an upgrade within the same discipline (e.g., from a Three-Year General History to an Honours History degree or from a Three-Year-General Liberal Studies to a Four-Year General Liberal Studies).
    Note: In this case, the student would be required to turn in the first BA in order to be granted the second degree. 
  • a second BA in a different discipline.

Before applying for another BA, both external and UW applicants are urged to determine whether a second degree is actually required for their purposes (in many cases, post-degree studies might be more appropriate). For details, students should consult the Arts Undergraduate Office, the Registrar's Office, or the academic advisor of the discipline.
