When I applied for my major at the end of first year I applied for three programs: Honours Anthropology, Anthropology BA, and English BA.
I was granted acceptance to the English BA only having completed 3 out of 6 required units in English. I did meet the required overall average for English (a 6), and the English course I took I fared better than the average needed for English (a 7) courses. However, my acceptance was considered "conditional".
That was also four years ago, so it is quite possible that things have changed since then...your best bet would to get an answer from someone in second year, as they would have most-recently gone through the process.
