Bachelor of Arts

Second Bachelor of Arts Degrees

Students may pursue a second Bachelor of Arts (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), or
  • a second BA in a different discipline.
    Note: In this case, the student would be required to satisfy the current Bachelor of Arts degree requirements.

Before applying for another BA, both external and University of Waterloo 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.
