When you choose computer science
After first year — POSt request, guaranteed only if grade thresholds are met.
What to watch for
The most important thing to get right at UTM, and it is NOT direct entry to the major. You must pick the Computer Science category (TMX/CMP1) in Grade 12 — from Fall 2026-27 onward you can no longer switch in from Life Sciences, Math or anywhere else — but admission to that category does not put you in the CS program. You still request the POSt after first year, and entry is guaranteed only if you complete CSC110Y5 (70%), CSC111H5 (77%), MAT139H5/MAT159H5 and ISP100H5 within 12 months. A supplemental application also applies from the 2026-27 cycle onward. Requires MCV4U and MHF4U; anyone with prior post-secondary study is ineligible for this category.
