Admission to the university and a specific major is usually simultaneous. Certain majors have additional requirements for direct admission.
College of Engineering and Computing
Students who apply to Computer Science and Engineering majors within the College of Engineering and Computing will be considered for direct admission to their selected major if they meet the following requirements:
- Four years of high school mathematics courses, including one course more advanced than Algebra II.
- One of the two conditions below:
- A minimum of 550 Math SAT or 24 Math ACT score.
- Grades of B (not B-) or better in all high school mathematics courses up to and including Algebra II.
Applicants who are admitted to the university but do not meet the selective admission requirements above will be temporarily placed in the CEC Undeclared major. More information about CEC Undeclared can be found here:
The Information Technology and Statistics majors do not have selective admission for freshman applicants. Students admitted to the university with these majors will be admitted directly into the program.
School of Nursing
The School of Nursing admission committee requires a second review of freshman applications for direct admission to the bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) major. Admission to the School of Nursing is highly competitive. Qualified applicants admitted to the university but not to the School of Nursing will be undeclared majors.
