I was just wondering what are the minimum grade requirements for moving onto your next year?

btw I'm in social sciences.

To move on without academic probation, you need a 4.0 or higher. Probation starts at either 3 or 3.5, i forget. Under that, and you're not re-admitted.

I believe for most social science programs you'll need a CA above 3.0. Honours programs have a higher average and differ for each degree usually.
That and depending on what your major will be, you may need to have certain marks for certain courses.
