Approved by Senate March 31, 2005
Policy
The overall minimum admission average for all direct-entry undergraduate applicants to ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ is 75%.
Context
¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ maintains a minimum admission average that is University-wide and consistent across all direct-entry undergraduate programs. The minimum of 75% reflects both the competition for and complexity of admission to ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥. The stated minimum average accurately reflects the demand and caliber of students applying for admission to ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥. It also provides transparency to prospective applicants about the requirement for admission to ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ undergraduate programs.
The standard does not prevent admission, which is determined at the program level, of exceptional students with extenuating circumstances.
