120 points completed towards the BCom at UC (with a GPA of at least 4.0/B- average).

Your application may be approved if you will meet the points requirement at the end of 2024 S1 assuming you pass all of your 2024 S1 courses, and you currently meet the GPA requirement (this will be looked at, and decided, on a case-by-case basis).

In addition to meeting the eligibility criteria above, students must provide a personal statement when applying for the programme, which will be taken into account in determining who is selected to participate in it. There may also be a limit placed on the number of students who can participate.

If there are more applications than places available, the basis of selection will be demonstrated academic achievement in the form of an applicant’s GPA and the quality of the personal statement. Equal consideration will be given to both criteria. Students must also be accepted by the partner institution.
