Students must have an average of at least 70% in 3.0 principal courses, including: (Calculus 1000A/B or Calculus 1500A/B) and (Calculus 1501A/B or (Calculus 1301A/B with a mark of at least 85%)), Mathematics 1600A/B, Economics 1021A/B and Economics 1022A/B, plus 0.5 additional principal course, with no mark less than 60% in any of the 3.0 principal courses.
Recommended (but not required) first year courses: Actuarial Science 1021A/B, Business Administration 1220E, Philosophy 1200.
Note: Economics 1021A/B and Economics 1022A/B, if not taken in first year, must be completed in one of the upper years in the program.
Numerical and Mathematical Methods 1412A/B and Numerical and Mathematical Methods 1414A/B; or the former Applied Mathematics 1412A/B and the former Applied Mathematics 1414A/B or the former Applied Mathematics 1413 may be substituted for the 1.0 Calculus course requirement. Numerical and Mathematical Methods 1411A/B or the former Applied Mathematics 1411A/B may be substituted for Mathematics 1600A/B. Mathematics 1600A/B (or Numerical and Mathematical Methods 1411A/B), if not taken in the first year, must be completed prior to the second term of Year 2.
