Additional Admission Information
A cumulative grade point average of 2.5 in the above courses must be achieved with a minimum grade of “C-” (1.70) in each course. The credit/no credit option will not be accepted for any of these courses. These criteria apply to equivalent courses transferred from other institutions. The applicant must have earned a minimum grade point average of 2.0 in all collegiate study.
Students who have met all of the above requirements will be admitted unless the number of applicants exceeds available space. In that case, acceptance will be competitive, based on a selection index. Students in a pre-major status who have not met all of the above requirements may enroll in a business core or specialization course only with permission of the college dean or designee.

- Students must earn a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.25 in the 107-108 credit in-the-major coursework to be eligible for a degree. In addition, the Department requires a minimum GPA of 2.25 in the 59-60 credit upper-division component of the in-the-major total.

- The BSBA program requires a single specialization of at least 25 credits. Occasionally a student requests a second specialization.

The remaining five credits may be accounting (ACCT) or economics (ECON). The student is limited to 10 credits from any one area and the specialization must include at least 10 credits of 400-level courses, which cannot include BUS 490 as any of the 10 credits at the 400-level.
