More than marks?supplementary application	Yes A supplementary application is required. Entry to the Computer Science admission category is gained directly from high school. Transfer students who have completed any post-secondary studies (including studies at other divisions at the University of Toronto) are not eligible for admission to the Computer Science admission category at the University of Toronto Mississauga.

What you study	Information Systems Software Engineering	Aerospace EngineeringChemical Engineering Civil Engineering Computer Science
What it is	A program in which you study how to design, build, and maintain software and computer systems. The BCS degree focuses more on the theory and mathematics behind computing, while the BA allows you to combine computer science with other subjects. Both paths prepare you for software development, systems design, or related technical roles, and include paid work terms through co-op so you gain real experience while studying.	Smith Engineering's common first year means you take the same core courses as all engineering students — math, physics, chemistry, and engineering fundamentals — before choosing a specialization like mechanical, civil, chemical, or aerospace engineering in second year. This delays your choice, letting you explore different engineering fields before committing. It suits students who know they want engineering but are unsure which branch fits them best.

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.
