Prerequisites:

Grade for Entrance Previous Year (%)*76 to 80
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
    Applicants to the MSc program are normally expected to have a bachelor’s degree in a biological, natural, health or social science or another related field of study with at least a B+ (76%) average in their third- and fourth-year classes or ≥12 credits in third- and fourth-year classes in their intended field of study with at least an A- (80%) average. Their background training must be sufficient for advanced work in their chosen field. Please see the College of Graduate Studies website. No applicant will be admitted to the MSc program until a member of the Health and Exercise Sciences faculty has agreed to supervise the thesis research; thus, again, applicants are strongly urged to identify and contact a potential research supervisor prior to beginning an application.
