Bachelor of Science (4-year)

CBU offers the Bachelor of Science as a three-year general degree or a three- to four-year specialised programme on the Sydney, Nova Scotia campus. Majors listed on the programme page are Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Psychology and combined engineering programmes. CBU states that graduates go on to medical school, dentistry, pharmacy, physiotherapy and clinical psychology. Intakes run in Fall 2026, Winter 2027, Spring 2027 and Fall 2027. What the fee covers: the international full-time rate. CBU's 2026-2027 international table row 'Undergraduate Degrees (4-Year)' states CAD 997.50 tuition plus a CAD 1,152 international differential per 3-credit course at 15 credits a semester — ten courses, 30 credits, a year. Fee year: 2026-27. English requirement as published: IELTS 6.5 overall with no individual band below 6.0; or TOEFL iBT 80 (no score below 20) for tests taken before 21 January 2026; or Duolingo 120; or PTE 59; or CAEL 60. Before you budget: CBU's 2026-2027 international cost breakdown puts each year at CAD 23,794.40 all-in and the programme total at CAD 95,177.60. Budget the all-in CAD 23,794.40 a year, which includes the differential and International Medical Plan A at CAD 1,283 a year. A three-year route comes to about CAD 71,383.20. At CAD 95,177.60 for the four-year degree this is far outside a INR 25 lakh total budget — undergraduate study abroad costs structurally more than a master's, and on that budget a master's is the realistic route. Note too that CBU's Bachelor of Science page does not list Computer Science as an available major, so do not assume a BSc Computer Science is on offer here. Which intake applies to you: for international applicants the programme page lists one intake, Fall 2026. A four-term list of Fall 2026, Winter 2027, Spring 2027 and Fall 2027 is CBU's Canadian deadline block, not the international one — the international deadlines panel holds no hidden rows behind its 'SEE MORE' control, while the Canadian panel holds three. On entry, CBU publishes no minimum percentage, aggregate or grade for India: selecting India in the programme page's own country tool returns no figure.
