Undergraduate Programs

Students in the School of Business must meet School of Business Scholastic Standing Requirements, which include GPA requirements, as well as a timeline for completion of Business Critical Courses. Students admitted to the School of Business will be reviewed at the end of each Fall and Spring semester (defined as “term” below) to determine if their academic achievement meets requirements established by the faculty and outlined in this policy.  Students who reach specified credits at the end of a summer or intersession term will be evaluated on the GPA requirement for those credits at the conclusion of the following term. Students who reach more than one GPA credit requirement within a term will be held to the higher of the GPA requirements. Credits used to determine credit standing include those from course work at the University of Connecticut and course work accepted by the University of Connecticut as reflected on a student’s University of Connecticut transcript. Students who fail to maintain the required minimum grade point averages, or fail to complete required courses as noted below, are subject to dismissal from the School of Business.

These Scholastic Standing Requirements are reviewed in depth at School of Business orientation and during advising. Any questions regarding Scholastic Standing should be directed to the student’s Academic Advisor.

The Scholastic Standing Requirements policy is changing, effective Fall 2025, and we are allowing students the benefits of this new, more flexible policy.  Students received an email at the start of the Spring 2025 term detailing the new policy and its requirements, however please note that the 3.0 cumulative GPA, 2.0 business cumulative GPA, and 2.0 term GPA requirements remains the same, for students who reach 54 earned credits.
