Change of Degree
All students must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or above to change degree programs or change into the College.
From Pre-Engineering to degree program
* complete a minimum of 24 units of courses required in first two semesters of curriculum for your intended degree program, excluding Tier 1 & 2 general education courses.
* minimum grade point average at advanced standing level in intended degree program with at least 12 quality (UA) units.
Students who have completed courses with required grade point average will automatically be changed into intended degree program.
Students who have reached the 50 maximum unit limit and do not qualify for an engineering degree program will be required to change colleges.
Students who have not reached the advanced standing grade point average, but who have less than 50 units, will continue in Pre-Engineering.
College of Engineering Students: Declared Majors or No Major Selected
If a 1st semester student, you can change into any Engineering degree program.
If after 1st semester, you must have:
* completed 12 quality (UA) units in the engineering curriculum, (excluding Tier 1 and Tier 2 courses) with a grade point average at the advanced standing level of the intended degree program in those courses.
* completed calculus I with a grade of C or better.
* If below advanced standing grade point average, you will be moved into the Pre-engineering program and must complete requirements above to move into a major.
UA Students outside the College of Engineering
If 1st semester UA student: The Engineering Admissions Committee will review your admission records and you will be:
* admitted to requested degree program (major)
* admitted to Pre-Engineering
* denied admission to Engineering
If after 1st semester; you must have:
* completed 12 quality (UA) units in the engineering curriculum, (excluding Tier 1 and Tier 2 courses) with a grade point average at the advanced standing level of the intended degree program in those courses.
