regarding transfer from Life Sci to Honours Bio
Hi, I just have a question regarding transfer from Life Sci to Honours Bio
Is it easy to transfer into Honours Life Sci to Honours Bio as long as you have a good mark?
Also, if i make a transfer at Life Sci Level 3, will i go into Honours Bio Level 3?

As long as you have the grades, course requirements for entry into the program, AND there's space in the program, you shouldn't have a problem. Speak to one of the Science academic advisors about making a plan or to see how to maximize your chances/if you're on the right track.

so if you're supposed to be going into Level 4 Life Sci but make a switch into Honours Bio, they wouldn't put me back into Honours Bio Level 2 right?
and is it possible to request a transfer in the middle of the year, like after first semester finishes?

It depends on what courses you took and how many of the Hons Bio courses you took so you're not too behind and have to stay an extra semester/year or something.

That depends on whether there are spots or not. It's usually pretty easy to do so though esp into Hons Bio. Speak to one of the academic advisors to make sure everything is set though!
