- Alternate admission: For students enrolled in a program beyond Level I, admission to Levels II, III and IV of the Honours Economics (Specialist Option) program requires an average of at least 6.0 in ECON 2G03 , 2GG3 , 2H03 and 2HH3 with a grade of at least C in each of ECON 2GG3 and 2HH3 , in addition to the required Grade Point Average (GPA) as stated in the Minimum Requirement for Entering and Continuing in a Program Beyond Level I in the Faculty of Social Sciences Academic Regulations. Students enrolled in Levels II, III and IV cannot gain admission to the Honours Economics (Specialist Option) program by upgrading ECON 1B03 or 1BB3 .

Those students can take ECON 3U03 only if they achieved a grade of at least B+ in a recognised alternative statistics course. See ECON 2B03 in the Course Listings section of this Calendar for a list of recognised alternative statistics courses.
- Students interested in an M.A. in Economics should take ECON 3U03 and consider the Specialist Option.
