<p>What is a “British-style” school? I wonder. I also recall that some schools specifically say they don’t accept 3 year UK degrees (back when a friend of mine from UK was looking into this). It must be school or program specific, maybe. Maybe honor’s in UK means one more year? Or the thesis makes up for it. At my university (Toronto) you get an Honor’s BSc even without doing a 4th year thesis project, so I don’t know.</p>
