First-Year Students
Students are not required to select a program major until they register for their second year. Students planning to apply to second-year admission degree programs are still required to follow the course requirements for the program to which they were originally admitted. Students not meeting the minimum academic standing required for compulsory courses in a given program may be assigned 'Program Deficiency’ and may be required to discontinue from that program.
For information on specific course registration regulations, including credit load, taking courses as Credit/D/Fail, repeating courses and taking courses outside of UBC, please see the Faculty’s Academic Regulations.
