It is a provincial university with membership in the Association of Commonwealth Universities and the Association of Univer-sities and Colleges of Canada. The University of Lethbridge participates with the universities and other post-secondary institutions of Alberta in a variety of cooperative programs and activities. The University of Lethbridge was established in 1967 with a student popu-lation of 638. It has grown to its current population of 3,200 full and part-time students on a campus overlooking the beautiful Oldman River. Another 1,800 students are enrolled in Summer School studies. LOCATION The University is located on 457 acres in west Lethbridge, a growing sub-division in Alberta's third largest city with a population of 61,000 people. The centre of a prosperous farming and ranching area, Lethbridge is characterized by its many green areas and parks, and its abundant cultural and recreational facilities. It is located in southern Alberta, 90 miles east of the Canadian Rockies and 60 miles north of the United States border. FACILITIES The campus, designed by architect Arthur Erickson, has received interna-tional acclaim for its architectural originality and functional design. University Hall Focal point of the campus is University Hall where students learn, study and live. Housing the cafeteria, residence, classrooms, science laborator-ies, library, bookstore and administrative offices, this facility provides everything under one roof. The Performing Arts Centre This facility, officially opened in September, 1981, houses the Departments of Art, Dramatic Arts, Music and the Fine Arts components of the Faculty of Education. It features a 406-seat multi-purpose theatre, a 203-seat recital hall/film theatre, the University Art Gallery, classrooms, practice rooms and studios. The Centre has become the focus of southern Alberta's cultural scene offering world-class performances in the arts in addition to faculty and student productions. Physical Education Building For physical education majors as well as those who want a break from their studies, this facility provides gymnasia, weight room, sauna and steam room facilities in addition to the classrooms, administrative offices and auxiliary spaces. Adjacent to the building is an Olympic standard track, soccer pitch and tennis courts. Service Buildings Four service buildings complete the campus, housing a Day Care Centre and various service departments. Max Bell Regional Aquatic Centre The Max Bell Regional Aquatic Centre features an Olympic standard swimming pool. The Aquatic Centre has an eight-lane, 50 metre pool tank, three and five metre diving towers and a 250-seat spectator gallery. Movable bulkheads make it possible for three separate activities at one time, and an adjustable floor makes the pool accessible to non-swimmers, young children and disabled and handicapped persons. PROGRAMS The Faculty of Arts and Science offers instruction leading to the degrees Bachelor of Arts (B.A.), Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) and Bachelor of Arts and Sciences (BASc.). The Faculty of Education offers instruction leading to the degrees Bache-lor of Education (B.Ed.) and Master of Education (M.Ed.). The Faculty also offers a post-baccalaureate Professional Diploma in Education (D.P.E.). The School of Fine Arts offers the degrees Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) and Bachelor of Music (B.Mus.). The School of Management offers the degree Bachelor of Management (B.Mgt.) as well as certificate and post-baccalaureate diploma programs. The School of Nursing offers the post-basic degree, Bachelor of Nursing (B.N.). The University also offers programs for transfer of credit to professional faculties at other universities in Agriculture, Dentistry, Engineering, Envir-onmental Design, Food Science, Forestry, Home Economics, Law, Library Science, Medicine, Optometry, Social Welfare and Veterinary Medicine. A four-year Bachelor of Social Work program is offered by the University of Calgary, in cooperation with The University of Lethbridge, on the Leth-bridge campus. A public service program offered by the Division of Continuing Education is designed to meet the variety of educational needs and interests of the community. It consists of non-credit instruction, seminars, conferences, exhibitions, performances and workshops in the University's fields of study. These programs are offered both on campus and at off-campus centres and at times convenient to part-time students. 3 STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY In the process of transmitting and advancing higher learning, The University of Lethbridge endeavours to cultivate humane values; it seeks to foster intellectual growth, social development, aesthetic sensitivity, personal ethics and physical well-being; it seeks to cultivate the transcendental dimension of the scholar's personality. Flexibility and openness to innovation will be the distinguishing feature of The University of Lethbridge. Notwithstanding its intention to offer diverse subject matter contributing to the acquisition of professional skills, the University regards learning as an end in itself, not merely as a means to material ends. Its primary aims are to foster the spirit of free inquiry and the critical interpretation of ideas. The undergraduate is, and should remain, the focus of the University's endeavour. Students are invited to participate in all phases of university life. The highest degree of interaction between students and faculty is encouraged, and should not be confined to the physical limits of the campus. It is desirable and necessary that the University should relate closely to the local community. Nevertheless, its outlook should not be determined by any regional or sectional interest. Through exposures to cosmopolitan influences and diverse cultures, scholars are best able to evaluate their own social and cultural milieux. The University asserts its right and responsibility for free expression and communication of ideas. It is self-evident that a university cannot function without complete autonomy in this domain. 4 JULY 1988 SUN MON TUE WED THU FRI 1 SAT 2 3 4 5 6 7 89 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24/31 25 26 27 28 29 30 AUGUST 1988 SUN MON TUE WED THU FRI SAT 1 234 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 NOVEMBER 1988 SUN MON TUE WED THU FRI SAT 1 23 45 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 DECEMBER 1988 SUN MON TUE WED THU 1 FRI 23 SAT 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 ACADEMIC SCHEDULE 1988 - 1989 JULY 1 Friday - First day of the 1988-89 academic year.

INFORMATION AND ADVICE Inquiries relating to admission should be directed to the Registrar's Office. 2. GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT ADMISSION a. First-Year Students Every first-year student is admitted into the Faculty of Arts and Science. This admission is for applicants who intend 1. To study for a degree in the Faculty of Arts and Science (Bache-lor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Arts and Science); 2. To prepare for admission to the Bachelor of Education, Bache-lor of Fine Arts, Bachelor of Management and Bachelor of Music programs; 3. To enrol in one of the professional transfer programs in Agriculture, Dentistry, Engineering, Food Science, Forestry, Home Economics, Journalism, Law, Library Science, Medicine, Optometry, Social Welfare or Veterinary Medicine; 4. To commence general university studies without committing themselves initially to a particular program. b. Admission to Other Programs within The University of Lethbridge Admission to the B.Ed., B.F.A., B.Mgt. and B.Mus. programs occurs at the third-year level of University studies. Students preparing to seek admission to these programs must be sure to select courses during their studies in the Faculty of Arts and Science that fulfill the admission requirements. Admission to the Professional Diploma Program in Education or the Master of Education program requires a B.Ed. degree or equivalent. c. Transfer to Other Universities from The University of Lethbridge Applicants who intend to enrol in one of the professional transfer programs should note that an applicant without the recommended admission subjects for a particular professional transfer program may be admissible to the Faculty of Arts and Science, but then may re-quire a longer period to complete the professional transfer program. d. Transfer from Other Universities to The University of Lethbridge Applicants who have previously attended one or more other post-secondary institutions must meet the admission requirements of the intended University of Lethbridge program. Such applicants may need to seek admission to the Faculty of Arts and Science in order to complete the requirements for subsequent admission to the B.Ed., B.F.A., B.Mgt. and B.Mus. programs. 11 Upon admission, students are assigned credit for subjects compar-able to courses offered at The University of Lethbridge that are passed with acceptable grades (ordinarily a C grade or better, or equivalent). Specified credit in a subject area is assigned when there is a University of Lethbridge course equivalent to the course being transferred. Unspecified credit in a subject area is assigned when there is no course equivalent, but the course being trans-ferred is acceptable in meeting subject requirements for a degree. Applicants who have completed courses at Alberta colleges are referred to the Provincial Transfer Guide for detailed information about credit. The Guide is available through the respective college Registrar. Applicants assigned transfer credit must obtain approval at the time of admission for the balance of the program of studies for fulfill-ment of the degree requirements at The University of Lethbridge. 3. ADMISSION TO THE FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCE Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts and Sciences Programs Admission to these programs may be gained by meeting the require-ments of one of the following routes. a. Alberta High School Credits Applicants seeking admission on the basis of Alberta High School credentials must present: 1. A High School Diploma 2. Credit for English 30 and three subjects from the following list with an overall average of 60% and a minimum mark of 50% in any subject. Note: The blended grade will be used where applicable in cal-culating this average. Biology 30 German 30 or 31 Blackfoot by special Latin 30 Cree assessment Mathematics 30 Chemistry 30 Mathematics 31 French 30 Physics 30 French 31 or Language Social Studies 30 and Literature 30 Ukrainian 30 3. A fifth subject at the Grade 12 level with a minimum mark of 50%. The grade in the fifth subject is not used in computing the average for admission purposes. The fifth subject may be any combination of Grade 12 courses offered for five credits as part of the Alberta High School curriculum, provided that they do not duplicate one of the disciplines noted above, i.e. credit for both English 30 and 33 will not be counted. b. Other Canadian High School Credits An applicant from another Canadian province who has completed the admission requirements of the university or universities of that province normally is considered eligible for admission to The Uni-versity of Lethbridge. Appropriate academic subjects and a satisfactory average are required for admission. Certificates Acceptable for University Admission British Grade 12 with appropriate subjects (C+ average) Columbia Saskatchewan Division IV or Grade 12 standing with a 65% average on all group 30 level subjects presented for admission Manitoba Grade 12 with completion of the appropriate 300 and 301 level subjects (minimum 60% average) Ontario Complete Grade 13 or presentation of Ontario high school academic courses (minimum 60% average on appropriate subjects) Quebec One year of C.E.G.E.P. with subjects appropriate for university admission (60% minimum average) New Brunswick Grade 12 with appropriate subjects (minimum 60% average) Nova Scotia Grade 12 with appropriate subjects (minimum 60% average) Newfoundland Grade 12 with appropriate subjects (minimum 60% average) Prince Edward Grade 12 with appropriate subjects (minimum Island 60% average) c.

Box 592, Princeton, New Jersey, U.S.A., 08540. d. Alberta Colleges or Institutes of Technology The University admits any applicant who has successfully com-pleted one year or more of studies at a recognized Alberta College or Institute of Technology and is recommended by that institution for university admission. For admission requirements, the Univer-sity accepts courses offered by colleges which are deemed by the colleges to be equivalent to Alberta High School 30 level courses. e. Transfer from Accredited Colleges or Universities An applicant who has successfully completed one year or more of work at an accredited degree-granting institution or a transferable program at an accredited college is admissible to The University of Lethbridge. f. Mature Student - Not normally open to non-Canadian students 1. Does not have the educational credentials required for admis-sion through another admission route. 2. Is at least 19 years of age at the commencement of the session. 3. Provides evidence of ability to benefit from University level studies. Specific admission requirements are determined dur-ing a personal interview arranged by the Registrar's Office. g. Credentials from Other Countries In general, applicants from other countries require qualifications comparable to those of Canadian applicants. Proof of proficiency in the English language is required. One acceptable proof is a minimum score of 550 in the Test of English as a Foreign Language through the College Entrance Examination Board, P.O. Box 899, Princeton, New Jersey, U.S.A. For students who have met all admission requirements except proof of proficiency in the English Language, this requirement may be met by successful completion of the E.S.L. program at this University. Examples of admission requirements for non-Canadian students are listed below. Other credentials of comparable merit are accept-able. Applicants seeking admission on the basis of documents in a language other than English must submit the documents together with a notarized English translation. When the documents do not indicate the subjects studied and the grades secured in thp individ-ual subjects in the final year, the applicant is required to submit certified statements from authorized officials of the institution attended giving the required information. The International Baccalaureate: This document indicating appropriate subjects is acceptable for admission to first year. Some advanced credit may be awarded. This credential is also acceptable for Canadian students. General Certificate of Education: Applicants must have completed a minimum of five subjects includ-ing English, at least two being at the Advanced Level with the remainder at the Ordinary Level. Appropriate academic subjects must be presented. Australia and New Zealand: Applicants with matriculation standing from a recognized univer-sity in Australia or New Zealand are generally admissible to The University of Lethbridge. Applicants must present the Leaving Cer-tificate or the Matriculation Certificate. University of Hong Kong: The University of Hong Kong Matriculation Examination is consid-ered for the same credit as the General Certificate of Education. The Chinese University of Hong Kong Matriculation Certificate is not acceptable for admission. India and Pakistan: A Bachelor's Degree in division one is the minimum requirement for admission, or G.C.E. as above. 12 United States: Applicants who have graduated from high school in the United States are eligible to apply for admission. Normally applicants who have completed a high school program similar to Canadian gradu-ates will be considered for admission. Alternatively, applicants may submit scores in the C.E.E.B. Scholastic Aptitude Tests and in three Achievement Tests related to their intended program. h. Early Admission Early admission is granted to Canadian high school students who have a 70 percent average, based on two completed matriculation subjects and predicted grades for another two matriculation sub-jects. The process requires the recommendation of a school offi-cial, and is applicable only between early February and early May. Students are advised to consult their School Guidance Counsellors for applications. i. Admission as a High School Student (Advanced Placement) Alberta high school students may be admitted on a part-time basis if they are: 1. Currently enrolled in a southern Alberta high school program. 2. Recommended by the appropriate high school officials to be academically prepared for university-level work in a given sub-ject area or areas. Credit courses successfully completed are credited toward degree requirements upon admission as a full-time student. I. Second Bachelor Degree Student Applicants with undergraduate degrees from professional faculties are admissible to the Faculty of Arts and Science programs. Depending upon their applicability to the curriculum in Arts and Science and the standard of performance achieved in them, some of the courses taken for the professional degree may be credited toward a degree in the Faculty of Arts and Science. Students are not eligible to receive a second degree the same as that which they already have from another recognized institution. However, such applicants may be admitted as special students in order to pursue studies of interest. Enrolment Limits Admission to the Faculty of Arts and Science does not constitute a guaran-tee that a student will be able to register for any specific course in a given semester. Enrolment limits are enforced by the Faculty when instructional resources become exhausted. 4. ADMISSION TO THE FACULTY OF EDUCATION a. Bachelor of Education Program (B.Ed.) The requirements for admission to the Faculty of Education are 1. Completion of 20 courses in pre-Education. 2. A minimum cumulative grade-point-average of 2.00. 3.

Applicants with undergraduate degrees, other than a B.Ed. degree, are admissible to the Bachelor of Education program. Enrolment Limits There are enrolment limits on the number of students admitted to Profes-sional Semester I.
