The Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) program for part-time students in the Desautels Faculty of Management has been designed to be of assistance to those students who, for various reasons, cannot attend the University during the daytime. The evening courses are offered during the Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer.
The BCom program accepts students with a wide variety of academic backgrounds. Admission is competitive with an above-average Academic Standing expected; decisions are based on the whole academic record. It should be noted that meeting the minimum requirements for admission does not guarantee acceptance into the BCom program.
Applications for admission, as well as information on admission requirements and deadlines, can be obtained in person from:
or from the website at www.mcgill.ca/admissions.
Students in the following two categories (CEGEP Diploma (DCS) Applicants and Transfer Applicants) apply through Enrolment Services using the online application found at www.mcgill.ca/admissions.
CEGEP Diploma (DCS) Applicants must have completed, within the past five years, Calculus 1, Calculus 2, and Linear Algebra (Mathematics 鈥 OOUN, OOUP, OOUQ or 201- NYA, 201-NYB, 201-NYC or 201-103, 201-203, 201-105) at CEGEP with a competitive 鈥淐OTE R.鈥

Transfer Applicants (who have studied at another Quebec university) with above-average results must have completed, within the past five years, Calculus 1, Calculus 2, and Linear Algebra at CEGEP with a competitive "COTE R," or with B+ grades if taken at another university.

These courses are sequential: CMSC 203 is offered in the Fall; CMSC 204 is offered in the Winter. These courses will not normally be credited toward the minimum credit requirement.

The minimum number of credits required to complete the degree will depend on the student's pre-university education.
