Course Level

[Deleted]

I've already graduated with a BSc and may be returning as a non-degree student next semester to fulfill some of the DVM course requirements. I have a question about the following stipulation:

"For students in science programs with more than 10 credits, 60% percent of credits in each full-time semester must be taken at a 3000 level (third year level) or above."

Does this mean that 60% of the courses have to be 3000 level science credits? Can I have 60% 3000 level arts courses instead?

As far as I'm aware, there is no restriction on the type/faculty of the courses taken (e.g., arts, science, etc.), just on the level (i.e., 3000-level or above), as well as not repeating courses, etc. (i.e., all that jazz listed on the academic requirements web page).

As always though, variations in individuals' academic histories can have an effect, and especially if you are returning for a non-degree semester expressly for the purposes of using it for a DVM program application, you should be sure to contact Deanna Lundmark for the official word if you are unsure of anything (and if you'll be at an external/non-UofG university, you'll have to anyways to get your semester and courses approved).
