Admission to the Bachelor of Computer Science (Data Science) academic plan, which is a Computer Science major academic plan, normally happens in second year. Students from within the Faculty of Mathematics with advanced standing may apply for admission to a Computer Science major academic plan if they: - Have completed at least one term in the Faculty of Mathematics with a typical course load for a Computer Science major. - For students taking a first-year CS course: one CS course, two math courses, and two non-math electives. - For students taking second-year CS courses: two CS courses, two math courses, and one non-math elective. - Have credit for ([CS 136](https://ucalendar.uwaterloo.ca/2223/COURSE/course-CS.html#CS136) or [CS 146](https://ucalendar.uwaterloo.ca/2223/COURSE/course-CS.html#CS146)) and [CS 136L](https://ucalendar.uwaterloo.ca/2223/COURSE/course-CS.html#CS136L). - Have a minimum math major average of 65% (calculated over all math and computer science courses) and a minimum CS major average of 70%. Computer Science major academic plans are limited-enrolment academic plans and successful completion of the above conditions will not guarantee admission; applicants without some of these conditions will be considered on an individual basis. Students are normally not considered for admission beyond the 2B level. | | | | --- Office of the Registrar University of Waterloo Ira G.
