Continuation in the Arts and Business academic plan requires a minimum cumulative average of 60%, a minimum cumulative average of 70% in Arts and Business courses, and an Honours major average of 75% at the end of each academic term.
Eligibility for graduation in the Honours Arts and Business Co-op or Regular academic plan with an Honours Arts major academic plan includes successful fulfillment of the following requirements:
- Appropriate Program-level requirements. See Bachelor of Arts Degree Requirements.
- Arts and Business Plan-level requirements:
- ARBUS 100 (0.0 unit)
- 6.5 Arts and Business academic course units (13 courses) with a minimum cumulative average of at least 70%, including:
- Appropriate Plan-level requirements for the student's Honours major. See the specific Arts Honours major (Arts and Business Co-op and Regular) sections of this calendar.
Notes:
- Students must normally have an overall average of 70% in their Honours Arts and Business courses at the end of the first term of Year One (1A) to remain in the Honours Arts and Business Co-op academic plan.
- Students must normally have an overall average of 70% in their Honours Arts and Business courses at the end of Year One to remain in the Honours Arts and Business Regular academic plan.
- Students wishing to take a different course in the ENGL 210 series should consult with their Arts and Business advisor.
- Honours Arts and Business Co-op and Regular students may only select one of the specializations listed within the Honours Arts and Business academic plan.
- Digital Arts Communication and International Trade Specializations are available for qualified applicants in the Honours Arts and Business Co-op academic plan in Year Two.
- Students pursuing one of the two Arts and Business specializations will have all courses taken towards that specialization (i.e. that are listed within the specialization) counted in their Arts and Business average. If the student's Honours Arts and Business average falls below the required 70%, they should seek immediate advice from their Arts and Business advisor. If the advisor determines that the specialization is causing the drop in average, students will be allowed to continue in Honours Arts and Business, but will be required to drop the specialization in question.
- Students in the Honours Arts and Business Regular academic plan may not pursue departmental co-op; however, they may apply for admission to the Honours Arts and Business Co-op academic plan.
- Upon successful completion of all Honours Arts and Business Co-op curriculum requirements, including a minimum of four successful work terms, a student is granted an Honours degree in the Arts major discipline with an Honours Arts and Business Co-op designation.
- Upon successful completion of all Honours Arts and Business Regular curriculum requirements, a student is granted an Honours degree in the Arts major with an Honours Arts and Business Regular designation.
