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.

If you are in year 2, follow the recommended courses listed in the academic calendar for the Statistics specialization that you are interested in: for example, Major in Statistics, Combined Major CPSC/Statistics, Combined Major Statistics/Economics.

Take Math 200 (multivariable calculus), Math 221 (linear or matrix algebra) and Math/Stat 302 (introductory probability) as soon as possible. Then read the next item.

If you are applying at the end of Year 1 and hope to be a Statistics major with Year-2 standing, please follow the procedure on UBC Science's Second Year Application page.

Note: You should list Statistics among your top 3 choices. If you ask for Statistics as a top choice and didn't get this choice, please go to the next item.
