Average under 5 for life sciences?
What happens? If you are over a 3 avg but under a 5.. will they put you in the honours life science program anyway if you have a reason? What are the options?

Get your average up in B. Life Science, you can switch over to Honor. Relevant.

Thanks.

is there any way they would let you go into the honours program anyway? if you redid a course in the summer and raised your average higher maybe?

Unfortunately, nope. There is no appeals process (that I'm aware of) for program selection, and academic review won't occur for you again until next May.

Go into the 3 year program, raise your average and apply again a year from now.
