More than marks?supplementary application	Yes By applying for this concurrent education program and choosing your subject of major interest from the pull-down list, you will be considered for admission to both programs. Therefore, applicants should not use a subsequent application choice to apply to their subject of major interest separately. Graduates receive both a Bachelor of Education degree as well as a Bachelor's degree in their chosen subject of major interest. An online Faculty of Education Supplementary Information Form and supplemental fee are also required. Refer to the Faculty of Education website Usually closes before January 15	Marks only	Marks only

What it is	You earn both a teaching degree and a university degree in computer science at the same time, finishing in four years instead of five. Unlike separate education programs, this concurrent stream lets you study your subject deeply while training to teach it, so you graduate ready to teach high school computer science. It suits people who know they want to teach a specific subject and want to avoid extra years of study.	You study the science of living things — from individual cells and genes to entire ecosystems and animal behaviour. The Environmental Science degree focuses on how organisms interact with their environment, while other options let you specialize in animal biology, plants, genetics, or microbiology. This program suits people curious about how life works and interested in careers ranging from conservation and wildlife management to research, teaching, or health sciences.	A Biology degree at Glendon lets you study how living things work, from cells and molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll take core biology courses and choose from specialized areas like genetics, microbiology, human biology, or biotechnology. The iBSc variant integrates bilingual (English–French) instruction throughout your degree, rather than offering biology taught only in English.

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.
