Can I take another year of school if I wanted?
So here is my predicament: I was in honours economics until the end of my 1st term in third year. Unfortunately, I don't think my CA will be 6.0 after the second term.

I dont want a BA. Cant I just stay in school as long as I want until my CA is a 6 again? Or at least take one extra year to get my average back up?


Thank you.

Looks like you're gonna have to redo your entire undergrad degree...

If you meet all the requirements to graduate with the BA and do not meet the requirements for the Honours BA, you will graduate. The easiest solution is to either not meet the requirements for the BA (Drop a few courses and bring your average up during summer and next year to graduate with the Honours BA) or work your ass off and get back into the Honours BA stream by getting a cGPA of a 6 by the end of the semester.
