Computer Science – Advanced Entry for Computer Programmer Analyst graduates

General information

The Computer Science – Advanced Entry for Computer Programmer Analyst graduates enables graduates with a three-year Computer Programmer Analyst diploma from Durham College or George Brown an opportunity to complete a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Computer Science within four semesters post-diploma.

Admission requirements

Graduates from Durham College’s or George Brown College’s three-year Computer Programmer Analyst college diploma program with an overall B average (73 per cent average) or better, will be considered for admission to UOIT’s Computer Science program.

Students approved for admission to this pathway program are accepted into the regular Computer Science program only and do not have the option to transfer into other programs or specializations.
