Application procedure for those with 1st year standing in the Faculty of Science

There are various specialization options within computer science. 

STEP 1. Confirm your eligibility and requirements for choosing a specialization in the steps outlined by the Faculty of Science.

STEP 2.  Review this helpful information about the process before you apply:

Moving from first year to second in Science
Second Year Specialization Application: What average do I need?
Promotion Requirements

STEP 3. Apply for your CPSC Specialization using the Faculty of Science Coordinated Admissions Process.  
 
If your application for admission to the Computer Science program is successful, you will be notified by the Faculty of Science.

Important:  The Department of Computer Science may not have enough seats to accommodate everyone, and you may need to select a non-CPSC specialization. If your application is unsuccessful, you can try again the following year. You can still try to take computer science courses; but, be sure to make academic progress in whatever major you're officially in. 

Consult the UBC Calendar for details about promotion requirements for your major and faculty.
