gotta get with the program

Are only my first 20 credits counted for program requirements? Ahhh its so confusing


hello there,

ahhhh indeed.


according to the artsci calendar, you need at least 20.0 credits to graduate, courses beyond that can still count towards your program requirements.

you just gotta make sure that your 20.0 (or more) credits satisfy these conditions:

  • at least 13.0 FCEs at the 200+ level
  • at least 6.0 FCEs at the 300+ level
  • at least 10.0 FCEs from the faculty of arts and sciences

the one thing you might have to be careful about is that if you have over 15.0 FCEs with the same three letter designation in the course code (e.g. ENG, or MAT), only the first 15 will count towards your degree requirements… but technically, maybe they can still count for your program requirements? i guess if you do find yourself in the unique dilemma of having 15+ FCEs with the same three letter code, it’d be best to check with your registrar, just in case!

hope that helps!
