Hi.
I was just wondering usually how many people are enrolled in a limited enrollement program (ie. honours bio spec. programs for example).
Thanks in advance.

I think it varies even between different limited enrollment programs even. For example Multimedia and Art Sci are both small but I think they both have different enrollment numbers. Also it may depends on different years and how many applicants there are and they are willing to let in.

I think the best option would be to contact someone who works within the specific program you are looking at. If you don't know contact info if you post exactly which program you are referring to someone in that faculty can likely provide you with useful contact info.

Like being said before, it really depends on the program you are interested in. For the Bio specialization programs (e.g. genetics, biodiversity, biochem, etc.)

From what I saw/heard last year, people with a CA of above 8 (also the cut off for biochem last year) don't have much problem getting into the program of their choice, unless you want to go into really competitive programs like Chem Bio, which I think took ~11 ppl last year.

Yah, the highest cutoff was I think ~9.8 GPA for Chem Bio last year. Recall hearing it during summer orientation session before we picked our first year courses.

If you have above a 10, you're good!
