Within a quasiparticle framework, we reconsider the issue of computing the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature ($T_c$) in a weakly non-ideal Bose gas. The main result of this and previous investigations is that $T_c$ increases with the scattering length $a$, with the leading dependence being either linear or log-linear in $a$. The calculation of $T_c$ reduces to that of computing the excitation spectrum near the transition. We report two approaches to regularizing the infrared divergence at the transition point. One leads to a $a\sqrt{|\ln{a}|}$-like shift in $T_c$, and the other allows numerical calculations for the shift.
