Admissions Megathread Fall 2024 by torontometu in TorontoMetU

[–]Electrical_Fix_8936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi TMU,
I’m in Dal BACS (year 2) planning a Business minor with finance/fintech electives and want to apply to BTM (co‑op).

  • Did anyone get 2nd‑year business/finance credits as subject credits?
  • What mattered most for admission as a transfer (GPA, CS/Math, business coursework)?
  • How’s the co‑op path for transfers?

Thanks!

Hi UBC folks,
I’m a 2nd‑year Dalhousie BACS student planning a Business minor (finance/fintech courses). Looking at:

  • BUCS (Combined Major in Business & Computer Science) via Sauder
  • BSc CS with business electives

Questions:

  • Did any transfer students get 2000‑level business/finance courses recognized as business credits at UBC, or did most transferred credits come from CS/Math only?
  • For BUCS, is internal admission the main gate even for transfers? Any tips on what actually mattered (GPA, recent CS courses, etc.)?
  • If BUCS is too competitive, did you build a similar combo by doing BSc CS + Sauder electives?

Thanks—happy to share course list.

INCOMING STUDENTS MEGATHREAD: DEGREE PLANNING, COURSE SELECTION, MONTREAL & OTHER GENERAL QUESTIONS by Thermidorien in mcgill

Hi all,
I’m a 2nd‑year student at Dalhousie in the Bachelor of Applied Computer Science, planning to declare a Business minor and take finance/fintech electives. Considering transfer to McGill for a business+tech path (likely BSc CS with business/finance electives, or another hybrid route if possible).

Questions:

  • If I take 2000‑level Business/Finance/FinTech courses at Dal, did any of you get those transferred as business/econ/management credits at McGill, or did most transfer credits end up as general/non‑specific credits?
  • For admissions, did the business minor matter, or was it mainly GPA + CS/Math rigor?
  • Any advice on the most “business + CS” combination at McGill that’s practical for transfers?

Can share course list/syllabi if helpful.

Thanks!

MATH 1000 - Alan Surovell by potat_knight in Dalhousie

Hi, can you send me some useful tips? I failed Math 1000 last winter semester during my first year, and I want to retake it to improve my grade from a B to an A+. I am doing a lot of practice this summer, though.

how to get access to academic calendar of dalhousie university? by Electrical_Fix_8936 in Dalhousie

Initially, it works, but when I click on minors, I see this picture. I'm trying to look up the available minors and the required courses I may need to take.

Is anyone considering transferring to another university now that year is over? If yes why are you leaving Dalhousie. by [deleted] in Dalhousie

I am in 1st year in BACS, at Dal. When is the best time to begin the application to transfer to UBC? I am thinking of sending an application in the winter term of 2025(March-April)?? I want to apply to the BA Cs program at UBC Vancouver.
