In some cases, the Admission Review Committee may recommend provisional acceptance for applicants whose overall completed application file does not meet or exceed regular admission standards. This could mean standardized test scores are below the national average, grade point average is below 2.5, recommendations are below average, and/or statement of purpose is weak in content and construction. Decisions about provisional acceptance are made on a case-by-case basis.
Undergraduate students who are provisionally accepted to the college must take a full course load of three courses for the first term of enrollment, may not withdraw from any of the courses, and must earn a grade point average of at least 2.0 during that term. Failure to earn a grade point average of at least 2.0 results in dismissal from the college. Provisionally admitted students who earn a grade point average of at least 2.0 the first quarter automatically become fully admitted for the next quarter. A tutoring program is available to all students who seek assistance and is specifically recommended for provisionally accepted students. There is no charge for tutorials.
Otherwise qualified undergraduate applicants to the professional architecture program who have SAT math scores lower than 540, who have ACT math scores lower than 23, or who are unable to demonstrate an aptitude for the study of mathematics and science may be admitted to the professional architecture program on a provisional basis. One condition stipulates that the student must complete MATH 101 with a grade of 2.0 or higher, and complete MATH 201 and PHYS 201 with a grade of 2.0 or higher in order to pursue the professional architecture degree. The credit hours earned in MATH 101 may be applied as elective credit hours required for the professional architecture degree.
