C. T. Bauer College of Business

Admission and Change of Major to Pre-Business

Qualified high school, college transfer students, and international students interested in majoring in business should apply first as a pre-business major. For specific admission requirements, consult the University Admission information section of this catalog. For admission information and an application, contact the Office of Admissions at 713-743-1010 or check the website at www.uh.edu/enroll/admis.

UH students who have completed 15-60 semester hours of college-level work at UH or other schools must have a minimum 2.75 cumulative grade point average on all college course work to become a pre-business major. UH students who have completed 60 or more semester hours of college-level work at UH or other schools must have a minimum 2.75 cumulative grade point average on the last 60 semester hours to become a pre-business major. The computation of the grade point average over the last 60 semester hours will include all grades for the semester in which the 60th hour occurs. Students on probation or suspension are not eligible to change their majors to business. Students who have submitted transcripts of all completed college work to the University of Houston may submit a change of major request on the Bauer website: www.bauer.uh.edu.

Enrollment by non-business majors in 3000-level business courses is limited to a maximum of 15 semester credit hours, including all courses attempted (with W's, I's, F's, and passing grades) and courses transferred.

Enrollment in 4000-level business courses is limited to students who are business majors; to students officially admitted into business-related programs (such as business minors, and students in the computer science-business option, the professional selling program, and exchange programs) who are taking these courses to meet specified requirements for these business-related programs; and to non-degree-seeking postbaccalaureate and graduate students taking accounting classes and the commercial law class to meet CPA exam requirements.
