The first-year curriculum at UNB is common to all students entering the Faculty. 

Commencing in second year students must select one of the available options. 

Some options lead to specialization in a single subject area, while interdepartmental options involve specialization in two subject areas. 

Majors and Honours programs are available in these options.

Co-operative education is available within all Science Programs including BAS and BA/BSc. 

Work terms may be 4, 8, 12 or 16 months in duration and are generally interspersed with academic study terms.

Students must complete six specific high school courses, according to their program of choice. 

UNB takes the overall average of the high school grades achieved in these six courses to calculate the student’s "minimum admission average", which is used to determine admissibility. 

For students who are taking required courses in the second semester of grade 12, and therefore don’t have access to their grades when they apply, the prerequisite course (usually grade 11) will be used to make a grade estimate for the grade 12 course required for admission to your selected program of study. 

Please note that UNB does not accept 'mid-term' grades.
