Akademia is a first year program with an integrated arts and science curriculum and a living learning component.
The program is designed to appeal to academically committed students with a strong general background who wish to pursue a liberal education while simultaneously completing the basic courses of the first year of the B.A. or B.Sc. program. Entry to this first year experience is through the B.A. or B.Sc. degree program and the admission requirements of these programs will apply. In no circumstances will the average for admission to the Akademia program be less than 75%. For further information contact the Akademia counsellor and request the program guide.
By the end of semester 2 Akademia students will have completed at least 3 courses from Group A (Akademia Integrated Courses). In addition, at least 1 course from each of Groups B (Arts) and C (Science) is required. With permission from the Akademia counsellor, students may take a limited number of electives from outside the Akademia curriculum.
Student course selection requires approval of the Akademia counsellor.
Upon completion of the Akademia experience, students will proceed into semester 3 of the B.A. program or apply to transfer to B.Sc. or another degree program. The program counsellor will advise students of options for continuation. In some instances where schedules of studies are rigidly defined, program transfer might necessitate the fulfillment of specific course deficiencies.
