Program Admission Notes:
NC State Undergraduate Admissions employs a holistic approach in reviewing transfer students’ applications and considers a range of accomplishments and qualifications. Recommended courses and GPA are major critical path courses or departmental recommendations and are not minimum requirements for transfer admissions.
-
Minimum 2.5 GPA (3.0 or above preferred)
-
English Composition I & II equal to NC State’s ENG 101 (ENG 111 + 112= ENG 101 and ENG 1**)
-
College-level Precalculus or higher Math
-
1 semester of General Biology or General Chemistry with a lab (preference is given to students with both courses)
Students intending to pursue a graduate degree in a STEM field may wish to take MAT 271 to meet the Calculus requirement for this major and should plan their associate degree accordingly.
