High school course requirements for admission to the Five-Year BEd (Concurrent) program are found in the Faculty of Arts, Science or Kinesiology admission sections. The Werklund School of Education does not have additional course requirements for admission. Enrolment in the Werklund School of Education is limited and students will be admitted on a competitive basis. Meeting the minimum requirements for the Faculty of Arts, Science, or Kinesiology, or the minimum requirements for the BEd, does not guarantee admission to the Werklund School of Education.

Students who wish to transfer to the Five-Year BEd (Concurrent) program should not have completed more than 60 units (10.0 full-course equivalents) in transferable courses at the post-secondary level by the end of the Winter Term and must have a GPA of at least 2.50. Refer to A.2 in the Admissions section of this Calendar.

It is required that all concurrent students complete Education 201 at the University of Calgary prior to entering the fourth year of the Five-Year BEd (Concurrent) program. Students who have not completed Education 201 cannot progress to Semester 1 of the BEd program.

The standard structure within the Five-Year Concurrent BEd program is for students to do the first three years within their co-operating faculty (Arts, Science, or Kinesiology) and the last two years within Education. Students must end the Concurrent BEd program on an Education year.
