This link opens in a new windowDon't just look at the university's overall admission guidelines! What does it take to get into your specific program? Their standards may be higher.
Specific programs within a university can have more stringent admissions requirements than the overall school. Investigate not only how to transfer into your university of choice but also your specific major.
| Your Status | GPA Needed | |
|---|---|---|
| Leaving High School | UH general admission | ~3.4 (depending on class rank and test scores) |
| UH Bauer College of Business freshman admission | ~3.8 (depending on class rank and test scores) | |
| Transferring from a College | Transfer admission to UH | 2.5 - if you've earned 15+ credit hours |
| Transfer admission to Bauer College of Business |
3.25 - if you've earned 30+ credit hours 3.8 - if you've earned under 30 credit hours |
You need a higher GPA to get into Bauer to be a business major than you do to generally enroll at UH.
If you're trying to transfer after only 1 or 2 semesters with LSC (or other college), you'd need a 3.8 GPA!
"Accreditation" is awarded to schools, colleges, and universities by third-party organizations to affirm that their curriculum is actually valuable. Grants and loans may not be available if you're attending a non-accredited school. Non-accredited degrees can impact your future employability.
Within the school, the various degree programs can also earn accreditation. This is where looking at job postings may be helpful: in the education requirements, do employers mention needing not just an ABC degree but one from an XYZ-accredited school?
