CSP

Science One

Requires admission to the Faculty of Science. No other application is needed. Registration is through standard timetables (STTs) on the online Student Service Centre (SSC) starting in June.

Requires admission to the Faculty of Science and a separate Science One application.

Enrollment limited to 168.

Enrollment Limited to 75.

Chemistry and Physics 12 are required.
Calculus 12 is highly recommended.

A grade of 80% in English 12 or an LPI score of 5 or better is strongly recommended.

Students are required to have a minimum of 80% in Biology 11 or 12, Chemistry 12, Physics 12, Principles of Mathematics 12 (or BC equivalent), Calculus 12, and at least 80% in English 12 or English Literature 12 (or BC equivalent) or an LPI score of 5 or better.

The General Science Option includes Biology 121/140, Chemistry 121/123, Math 100/101, and Physics 101/102 taken as separate courses, but with the same cohort of students. (Note: most students also take Biology 112.) In addition, there is the CSP workshop (CSPW 100), with topics chosen to emphasize links between the disciplines.

Students receive a separate grade for each course.

The 27-credit package (25 Science One credits plus 2 credits for co-requisite, Biology 140 lab course in term 1 only) presents Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics in a unified and integrated format. Science One credits are not explicitly associated with specific courses, but completion of the program (students receive one blended mark) satisfies the entrance requirements for all 2nd year courses in Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics.

Provides less academic support than Science One, but more than in the Standard Program.

Provides a high level of academic support.
