Participation in the program is restricted to students who have completed at least ten courses with minimum cumulative GPA of 3.17. Normally the work done is to be the equivalent of two full courses.

Students must submit to the Co-ordinator before the beginning of the academic year a copy of their academic transcript and an outline of their topic (signed by the supervisor) and a suggested bibliography along with the name of a supervisor, who will normally be a full-time University of Toronto faculty member. For evaluation of the work done in the program a short thesis or equivalent is required, prepared and submitted by the last day of classes in the spring term. The Supervisor and a second reader (nominated by the Supervisor and approved by the Coordinator before the end of September) are responsible for the evaluation.
