Concurrent Degrees - One Professional and One Bachelor Degree Taken at the Same Time
Students who are currently registered in a professional degree may apply for permission to register concurrently in a Bachelor degree. Tuition fees applicable to the professional degree will be assessed and primary registration will reflect the Faculty offering the professional degree. Students must consult the Dean's office of both Faculties for permission to register in, progress in and graduate with a second undergraduate degree with an Honors Specialization, Specialization or Major module. A complete statement by the Dean of the Faculty offering the 3 or 4 Year Bachelor or Honors degree must be forwarded to the student, with a copy to the Office of the Registrar specifying: a. The courses that may be credited towards both degrees to a maximum of 10.0, with no more than 5.0 courses from faculties other than Arts, Health Sciences (excluding Nursing), Information and Media Studies, Science and Social Science. b. The number and kind of courses required to complete graduation requirements for the second degree including all senior courses for the Honors Specialization, Specialization or Major. c. These Concurrent Degree regulations do not apply to Senate approved Combined or Joint degrees. NOTE: In the case of professional degrees for which normal admission requires one or two years of study in a Bachelor degree, the courses taken as part of such a degree must be included among the 10.0 courses double credited towards both degrees. Students are encouraged to obtain academic counselling from the Dean of each Faculty during the course of their concurrent degree. Students who fail to meet the progression requirements of either degree will be required to withdraw from the concurrent degree.

Normally, these academic options are listed within Departmental or Faculty degree availability sections.
