Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Management or Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Management
The Faculty of Arts and Science and the Dhillon School of Business, and Faculty of Fine Arts and the Dhillon School of Business jointly offer a 50-course (150.0 credit hour) Combined Degrees program leading to the degrees Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) and Bachelor of Management (B.Mgt.). Upon successful completion of the Combined Degrees program, the student receives the B.A. or B.Sc. degree from the Faculty of Arts and Science or Faculty of Fine Arts and the B.Mgt. degree from the Dhillon School of Business.
Enrolment in the B.A./B.Mgt and B.Sc./B.Mgt. Combined Degrees programs is limited and fulfilment of the minimum academic admission requirements does not guarantee admission. The Faculties of Arts and Science and Fine Arts, and the Dhillon School of Business reserve the right of selection of all applicants for admission and readmission based on admission average.
1.Faculty of Arts and Science or Faculty of Fine Arts Admission Requirements for the B.A./B.Mgt. or B.Sc./B.Mgt.
All applicants to the B.A./B.Mgt. and B.Sc./B.Mgt. programs are advised to refer to Admission and www.ulethbridge.ca/ross/admissions/undergrad for general admission requirements, additional admission requirements, policies, and application deadlines.
2.Dhillon School of Business Admission Requirements for the B.A./B.Mgt. and B.Sc./B.Mgt.
