Combined Honours in Sociology or Social Anthropology and another field

To be admitted to any of the Combined Honours programs, students must meet the same GPA requirements as for Concentrated Honours. Specifically, the Department requires a grade average of B+ (3.30) or higher on courses above 1000 in SOSA and the other honours subject. In addition, a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.70 is required.
