What it is	You study a mix of subjects across arts and sciences rather than specializing in one discipline. This program lets you combine courses from different fields — for example, pairing physics with philosophy, or chemistry with history — to build a degree that fits your interests. It suits students who are curious across multiple areas and want flexibility to explore before committing to a single major.	Science One is a general first-year science program that lets you explore multiple science disciplines — biology, chemistry, physics, computer science, and others — before committing to a specific major. Unlike entering directly into a single science program, you take a broader range of foundational courses to discover which field best suits you. It works well for students who are interested in science but unsure which specialization to pursue.

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
