York University programs and pathways
York's official program search spans 11 faculties and schools across Keele, Glendon, and Markham. The same subject can have different BA, BSc, iBA, iBSc, campus, prerequisite, or work-experience options, so applicants should compare the exact degree rather than a broad subject label.
| Pathway | Faculty and campus | Selection distinction | Experiential learning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Schulich BBA / iBBA | Schulich School of Business · Keele | Separate Schulich degree with a mandatory leadership profile, video interview, and timed writing exercise | Business-school career services and internships; do not assume the LA&PS co-op rules apply |
| Commerce BCom | Liberal Arts & Professional Studies · Keele | A distinct York BCom route with accounting, finance, marketing, HR, supply-chain, and technology options | Eligible Honours students can apply to the LA&PS co-op program |

| Computer Science BA/BSc | Lassonde School of Engineering · Keele | BA and BSc use different science-course requirements; both require senior mathematics | Optional later-entry Lassonde co-op |
| Computer Science for Software Development BASc | Lassonde School of Engineering · Markham | Applied software-development curriculum at Markham with its own prerequisite and course sequence | Optional later-entry co-op |
| Direct-Entry Nursing BScN | Faculty of Health · Keele | Competitive direct-entry route with science prerequisites, high-80s current guidance, and applicant-status restrictions | Clinical learning; not listed in the current Health co-op group |
| Kinesiology & Health Science BA/BSc | Faculty of Health · Keele | BA and BSc differ in science prerequisites while sharing movement, health, and research foundations | Optional Faculty of Health co-op after the prep course |
