Fine arts majors registered through a federated college should also seek counselling from the appropriate department head. Through counselling the Faculty can communicate to students the meaning of higher education and explain to them the various programs offered at the University, with an indication of the opportunities the successful completion of these programs will offer. The counsellor will explain general academic requirements to the student and assist in building a program within these requirements that satisfies particular interests. The requirements for the various degrees are set out in the following pages. Notwithstanding advice given in the departments, students who have questions about their degree programs should consult the Student Program Counselling Office.
Some departments have additional admission requirements.
Students should refer to the department concerned for details of the program. Applicants who have been admitted to the Program without Grade 12 standing in English may place at English 100 level by writing the English Placement Test. A student may not receive credit for a 100-level course after receiving credit for a senior course in the same discipline, except by prior written permission of the department head. A course may not be repeated or taken for credit if it is a prerequisite for a course in the same discipline for which credit has previously been obtained, except by prior written permission of the department head. In exceptional circumstances, students may request permission from their faculty to repeat a course for the second time.
