C. T. Bauer College of Business

Admission, Change of Major to Pre-Business, and Course Limits

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. For admission information and an application, contact the Office of Admissions at 713-743-1010 or check the Web site 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 Web site during designated filing periods: www.bauer.uh.edu.

Enrollment by pre-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 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. Pre-business majors may not take any 4000-level business courses.

officially declared a business minor, or
a secondary major in business, or
officially been admitted into a business-related program such as the computer science-business option, the professional selling program or exchange programs, who are taking business courses to meet specified requirements for these business-related programs.

Postbaccalaureate students are not eligible to take undergraduate business courses except at the 5000-level, and may not pursue an undergraduate degree in business in the Bauer College of Business.
