Competitive Majors

  • Biology/Zoology
  • Biomedical Sciences
  • Business
  • Computer Science
  • Engineering

If you are admissible to the University but you do not meet the competitive admission requirements, we may admit you to a corresponding "pre" or "undeclared-exploring" interest area (e.g. undeclared-exploring life sciences) so that you may begin working toward the prerequisites for the major.

Programs with Additional Requirements for Admitted Students

The following majors have additional requirements that must be satisfied once students have enrolled in order to continue in upper-division courses. Students work closely with academic advisers and/or departmental representatives to prepare for the selection process.

Apparel and Merchandising (Design and Production concentration): Admitted students must satisfactorily complete specific courses and participate in a selective design activity/portfolio review.

Construction Management: All admitted students are placed into "Pre-Construction Management." Admitted students must satisfactorily complete specific courses to be eligible for consideration (the top 100 students are taken each fall and spring semester).

Interior Design: Admitted students must satisfactorily complete specific courses and participate in a selective design activity/portfolio review.

Landscape Architecture: All admitted students are placed into "Pre-Landscape Architecture." Admitted students must satisfactorily complete specific courses and participate in a selective design activity/portfolio review.

Music: All admitted students are placed into "Pre-Music" and must audition for placement into a Music major (taped auditions considered). The audition can be completed before admitted students enroll.

Admission to an "undeclared-exploring" or a "pre-" program does not assure admission to the college, major, or professional program.
