Academic Standards

In order to graduate with a major or minor in arts management, you must achieve a 2.75 GPA regardless of a declaration of academic bankruptcy.

Any major/minor falling below a 2.75 GPA will be placed on probation in the Division of Communication. If you fail to regain a 2.75 GPA after the next semester you enroll in a communication/arts management courses, you will be dismissed from the major/minor.

Courses with a grade below C- DO NOT fulfill major or minor requirements, but are included in the calculation of the major or minor GPA. See the More Academic Information section of this catalog for the policy on repeating courses.

Transfer credit policy: Certain courses taken at other universities may substitute for courses in the major. Credits from these courses will be counted when calculating your GPA in communication.
