The establishment of the Warren Centre for Actuarial Studies and Research as a part of the Asper School of Business makes it possible to continue and enhance the tradition of excellence which has distinguished the university’s actuarial program. Students pursuing the actuarial mathematics major have access to business and management-oriented courses. The Actuarial Mathematics major at the Warren Centre is the only Canadian actuarial program able to provide students with this powerful career advantage.
Choosing a major
In the Asper Bachelor of Commerce program, students typically choose a major at the beginning of their third year. Each student must declare at least one major and present a minimum Degree Grade Point Average of 2.00.
It is important to make sure you are following the correct program requirements for your chosen major. The best way to do this is to email an Asper program advisor or call the Asper Help Line at 204-474-6388.

Admission requirements
To declare the Actuarial Mathematics major, you first have to be accepted to the Bachelor of Commerce program. The following are minimum requirements for entry into the Asper Bachelor of Commerce program.
Direct entry applicants are those who have not attended a post-secondary institution or have completed fewer than 24 credit hours at a recognized university or college.
Advanced entry applicants are those who have completed one year (24 credit hours) or more of studies in another faculty at the University of Manitoba or another recognized post-secondary institution.
Asper also gives individual consideration to students who meet some requirements for admission but may not have academically competitive marks because of reasons beyond their control.
Meeting these requirements does not guarantee acceptance into the program. Admission into the Bachelor of Commerce program is academically competitive and within the discretion of the Asper School of Business.
