Important Information for Students Considering
Business Majors at Penn State
Based upon the review of the Central Enrollment Management Group, and beginning with first-year degree students entering Penn State in summer or fall 2009:
- Any students admitted to the University Park campus but not admitted to the Smeal College of Business must earn a 3.20 cumulative grade-point average (CGPA) at the end of their first year (completion of the second semester) to be eligible for a Smeal major.
- Any students admitted to a Penn State campus other than University Park but not admitted to the Smeal College of Business must earn a 3.00 CGPA at the end of their first year (completion of the second semester) to be eligible for a Smeal major.
- All students not admitted to the Smeal College must also meet the entrance-to-major requirements (including specific courses and grade-point averages) for the Smeal major of interest and be enrolled in the Division of Undergraduate Studies prior to the entrance-to-major process, which occurs during the spring semester of the sophomore year. Information about these course and grade-point average requirements will be available during the student's First-Year Testing, Consulting, and Advising Program (FTCAP) advising day.
Students considering majors in business should also be aware of the wide range of business majors available across the University. A list of those majors, including links to more information, is available from Business and Business-Related Majors at Penn State.
