Programs
Undergraduate Programs English Programs provide students with different frameworks within which to develop their knowledge of the field while balancing the demands of breadth and depth. Students should note that neither the Specialist nor the Major Program are designed to meet the requirements for admission to any particular graduate program: students interested in graduate school should seek advice on course selection from their professors and academic counsellors. Similarly, students considering a teaching career in Ontario should consult the admission counsellors at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education/UT. Students with questions about English Programs should consult the Office of the Associate Chair or the Undergraduate Counsellor.
Counselling
The Undergraduate Counsellor at the Department of English is available to give advice and guidance when students have questions concerning course selection, program requirements, Study Elsewhere Program and transfer credits. Individual counselling is available from 10 AM to 12 and 2 to 4 PM, Monday to Friday. Please telephone 416-978-5026 in the morning you wish to visit Room 609, 170 St. George Street, to assess availability. For detailed program counselling, please bring a complete list of your courses and the year in which you registered for your particular program.
2010 Summer and later Programs
Students are responsible for completing all the requirements of an English program from the
Faculty of Arts & Science Calendar of the year in which they enrolled in the program. Enrolment in the English Specialist program requires a final grade of at least 73% in ENG110Y, ENG140Y, or ENG150Y. Students applying to enrol in the Specialist after second year require a final grade of 77% in 2.0 ENG 200-series FCE.
Specialist Program (2010 Summer and later)
Ten FCE (including at least
7.0 ENG FCE) from the courses listed below, including
3.0 300+series FCE and
1.0 400-series ENG FCE.
Only 1.0 100-series ENG FCE may be counted. ENG100H1, ENG185Y1, CCR199H1, and CCR199Y1 may not be counted.
Courses must fulfill the following requirements:
- At least 1.0 FCE from Group 1 (Theory, Language, Methods)
- At least 1.0 FCE from Group 2 (Canadian and Indigenous North American Literatures)
