DIPLOMA IN HISTORY
Students will be required to have completed an Honors Bachelor degree with a minimum 75% average in all courses taken after first year. Students will normally have completed 5.0 courses in History or in a cognate discipline such as Political Science, English, Philosophy or Anthropology with a 75% average. 2.0 of these courses must have been at the third-year level or above.

Admission to the program may be limited, competitive, and will be determined on a case-by-case basis. Students in the program must maintain a minimum average of 70% in all courses with no mark below 60%. The Diploma must be completed within three calendar years.

Non-Western students must first apply through the Welcome to Western website. In addition, prospective students must complete the application form for the Diploma in History provided by Western Continuing Studies. All students will be admitted to the Diploma in History according to the policies and guidelines for admission to the University.
