General notes
- The admission average is your overall average of high school marks of university preparatory courses for admission to your selected program of study.
- Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission to any program.
- A pass at the high school level is required for each subject counted for admission (unless otherwise specified).
- To count for admission a subject must be taken at the Grade 12 "academic" level" (N.B. level 2) unless otherwise specified; level 1, French Immersion, and advanced courses are satisfactory substitutes (where they exist). Courses taken at the "general" or "open" levels will not be accepted for admission purposes.
- Students whose first language is French must offer French in place of English in the required subjects and may offer English as an elective.
Program-specific notes
Senior-year Mathematics, Chemistry and another approved science are required courses for admission to these programs. An average of the marks in senior Math, Chemistry, and the best other science course must be at least 75%.
Applicants who do not meet the admission requirements for direct entry to the Bachelor of Science degree program, but offer a minimum admission average of 70% (and other conditions as may be required by the admitting Faculty) may be given conditional admission to the appropriate Faculty in an entrance program to the extent that capacity allows.
Students who present only Chemistry will be considered at the discretion of the Faculty. Applicants who do not meet the admission requirements for direct entry to the degree program, but offer a minimum admission average of 60% (and other conditions as may be required by the admitting faculty) may be given conditional admission to the appropriate faculty in an entrance program to the extent that capacity allows.
Students with high academic standing may be considered for admission if they present any two of three grade 12 Sciences, e.g. Biology/Chemistry; Biology/Physics; Physics/ Chemistry, etc.
Students intending to enroll in MATH 1003, Introduction to Calculus I, must take a Placement Test which will be administered during Orientation week in September. Materials to prepare for this test are available on the web at http://math.unb.ca/ready as well as from the Mathematics Departments in New Brunswick High Schools and UNB. Based on their test scores, and the regulations set out by the Mathematics Departments, students will be required to take a Pre-Calculus course (Math 0863 UNBF or Math 1863 UNBSJ) or a special section of Math 1003 that covers the material of the course over two semesters, or a regular (one semester) section of Math 1003.
