Admission Requirements for Undergraduate Degree, Certificate and Diploma Programs

To be eligible for admission to the Post-Baccalaureate Diploma in Economics students must normally have:

1. an undergraduate degree with a GPA of 9.0 or higher, preferably with honours,
2. successfully completed university-level introductory (micro- and macro-) economics, calculus, and linear algebra with a grade of C+ or higher in each, and
3. permission of the Department of Economics.

Students may be granted advanced standing to a maximum of 1.0 credit. Advanced standing does not negate the 3.0 credit residency requirement.

Note: students who already hold an honours undergraduate degree in economics are encouraged to apply for admission to graduate programs in economics through the Graduate Admissions web site at graduate.carleton.ca .
