If you started in the Stat major program in the 2020-2021 academic year or earlier, you can choose to satisfy the academic calendar requirements for either the 2020-2021 academic calendar or the 2021-2022 academic calendar.Anyone admitted to STAT major in May 2021 or later is required to take DSCI 100, STAT 201 and Stat 301.

The requirement for a minor in statistics is 18 upper-level STAT credits, which may include MATH 302 and ELEC 321.

Students on either the statistics major or honours must complete either CPSC 210 or MATH 210 by the end of the winter session during which 78 credits have been attempted.

Please see the UBC Academic Calendar page on Promotion Requirements and Degree Progression.

If you're in Year 3, your deadline to apply is in early October. If you're in Year 2, your deadline to apply is in early March. For instructions, qualifications, and possible schedules for co-op terms, see Science Co-op's page for prospective students in Statistics.

You would have to apply to the CPSC Department, using this form. The form opens in April, and is closed for parts of the year.

Please see the Department of Economics page for more information. The deadline to apply is around May 5th.

If you have continued to take Stat/Math courses at the 300 level and above, and your grades have improved, then you can apply again here.

Arts students completing a double major in statistics must complete the lower level requirements of CPSC_V 110 (or 103 and 107), CPSC_V 210 or MATH_V 210, MATH_V 220, and all pre-requisite courses necessary to fulfill all upper level requirements. See the UBC Academic Calendar for the required upper-level courses. Students enrolled on a combined major with economics and statistics cannot take a double major in statistics.

We assume that you are in year 2 or later. After you have completed 

After you have completed DSCI 100 (Introduction to Data Science), STAT 200 (Introductory Statistics), MATH 200 (Multivariable Calculus), MATH 221 (Linear Algebra), and MATH/STAT 302 (Introductory Probability) [or their equivalents] with decent grades, you can apply via the online form.

Please read the instructions carefully before submitting your application. Applications will be considered in January and in May each year by the reviewing of overall profiles and grades in relevant Computer Science, Mathematics, and Statistics courses.

The application deadlines are mid-January and mid-May. Entry to the Statistics major is competitive. For any further inquiries such as Major in Mathematical Sciences, please contact an advisor at late major entrants at stat dot ubc dot ca.
