Graduation Year

In your final year at UBC Science, you'll want to makes sure that you've met all of the requirements to complete your specialization and apply for graduation. 

Grad Checks

Science Advising will conduct preliminary graduation checks for all final year students to review their Faculty requirements towards the end of Term 1. Science Advising only reviews students' faculty requirements. All students are reminded to consult their department program advisor to ensure they satisfy requirements for their science specialization. Students must satisfy BOTH faculty requirements and department requirements in order to graduate.
