Request Period:
Round 1:  April 1 - May 17, 2017.

This is a limited enrolment program and achieving the minimum mark threshold does not guarantee admission to the Criminology and Sociolegal Studies major in any given year. Eligibility will be based on a student’s mark in the required courses listed below. The precise mark threshold is an estimate of what will be required in the 2017 program admission cycle.

  • Completion of two full-course equivalents taken in 20169-20171 with the following course code indicators: ECO/HIS/PHL/POL/PSY/SOC. Any course (and level) combination from this list is acceptable. The estimated mark threshold is a combined average of 70% in these 2.0 FCEs.
    Note: Courses with other course code indicators will not be accepted.

Applying after second or third year:  Same as above.
