Office of Admissions
REQUIREMENTS FOR SELECTED PROGRAMS/MAJORS
Your admission to the university does not guarantee you admission to your major. Listed below are the UW-Stevens Point
academic departments that have established grade point average (GPA) requirements higher than 2.00 to be admitted to their
programs and/or to graduate from their programs. If you are interested in one of these majors, please check the department Web
site (see back side), online catalog, or contact the department for specific information.
NOTE:
 In some programs, the minimum GPA is based on all grades earned in all college courses at the university level. In other
programs, the minimum GPA is based only on grades earned in courses required for the major. If the program/major you are
pursuing is listed below, check the department Web site, online catalog, or contact the academic department to see what
courses and grades are included in the GPA requirement.

Some academic departments have limits on the number of students they may accept into their programs. The GPA listed for
these programs is the MINIMUM required to apply for the program and does not guarantee admission to the program.

If, in the future, you are not accepted for admission to the major of your choice, please contact the UWSP Student Academic
Advising Center.
