The goal therefore was to explore the possibility of expanding this pathway agreement to include York University and the University of Toronto, Woodsworth College. The Arts and Science University Transfer diploma program retains some of the foundational elements of the Liberal Arts Transfer (LAT) program, formerly General Arts and Science (GAS), except for the addition of specific science courses in chemistry, biology, physics and mathematics. The program began in Fall 2015 with one section, and as of Winter 2016, there have been three additional intakes.
