Notes

1. Subject to meeting admission requirements, students may combine two subjects and be graduated with a combined Honours B.A. degree. These combinations are available within the Faculty, with programs in the Faculty of Humanities and with the Arts and Science Program.
2. Alternate admission: For students enrolled in a program beyond Level I, admission to Levels II, III and IV of Honours Economics programs requires an average of at least 5.0 in ECON 2G03 , 2GG3 , 2H03  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 Honours Economics programs by upgrading ECON 1B03 or 1BB3. 
3. One of Grade 12 Mathematics of Data Management U, STATS 1L03  is a prerequisite for the statistics methods course offered by the Department of Economics (ECON 2B03 ). Students with prior credit in a statistics course recognised as an alternative to ECON 2B03  are exempt from this requirement. Those students can take ECON 3U03  only if they achieved a grade of at least B+ in a recognised alternative statistics course. There is no such grade requirement for ECON 3WW3 . See ECON 3U03  in the Course Listings section of this Calendar for a list of recognised alternative statistics courses.
