To qualify for a General Studies Diploma, a student must complete a minimum of 20 undergraduate level courses, totalling 60 or more credits.
The General Studies Diploma program at Kwantlen has been designed as an alternative to both the applied and University Studies programs. It enables students to design a framework for studies independent of occupational or University Studies requirements.
Students may select any undergraduate level courses in the calendar that they are particularly interested in and for which the prerequisites can be met. Some of the courses offer transfer credit to a university, or other institutions.
Upon successful completion of this program, students will be awarded a Diploma in General Studies.
