Hey Aska,
Before I ask my question, I just want to thank you for answering my previous question weeks earlier.? Your site is tremendously informative!
Anyways, I’m a first year Life Science student who’s aspiring to specialize in neurosience next year.? Are you aware of the minimum GPA required for such a program?? Also, if I apply during the summer but get rejected, do I still have the time to apply for a double major before the school year begins?
Thanks again,
Demi

Welcome back Demi,
So they don’t have minimum CGPA for a neuroscience specialist. It depends on the applicant pool for that given year. Pretty much the best of the best get in. For some reason when I was getting told about the program we started speaking in hushed tones and looking over our shoulders. I have the feeling this is one of the harder programs to get into, so I would just give it your all this year.
SUBJECT POST INFORMATION
I’m sure you’re aware that a neuroscience specialist is a Type 3 subject post. Here’s the deal on that:
Type 3 subject POStsType 3 subject POSts require completion of specific course(s), have a finite number of spaces and additional information is required by the subject POSt sponsor. Application is made on the Faculty Registrar’s web site.
For instructions on how to enrol in Type 3 subject POSts, check the fall/winter timetable.
The following enrolment dates apply to Type 3 subject POSts.
- Type 3 first request period: April 1 to May 24
- Requests should be made between April 1 and May 24
- Results of these requests can be obtained starting July 5
- August 5 is the last day to complete the enrolment process.
- Type 3 second request period: July 5 to August 29
- Requests should be made between July 5 and August 29
- Results of these requests can be obtained starting September 15
- September 26 is the last day to complete the enrolment process
While neuroscience as a Major is only a Type 1
Type 1 subject POStsType 1 programs have no enrolment requirements other than successful completion of four full-course equivalents. No application is required.
For instructions on how to enrol in Type 1 subject POSts, check the fall/winter timetable.
The following enrolment dates apply to Type 1 subject POSts.
- April 1 – first day to enrol on the SWS
- September 26 – last day to enrol on the SWS
So pretty much yes, you do have time because Type closes either May 24th or Sept 15 and you have until September 26th to enroll in a double major with Type 1.
peace and love,
Aska
