If you are completing the pre-admission courses in the current semester, you may register for restricted courses (pending final approval of admission to the major) for next semester providing that your cumulative UNCG GPA is at least a 2.0, or whatever is required for your intended major. If you do not have the required 2.0 GPA, you will not be able to take any Bryan School courses.

Timelines to consider for admission to major:
  • If you are completing the pre-admission courses in the fall, please apply for admission in September.
  • If you are completing the pre-admission courses in the spring, please apply for admission in February.
  • If you are completing the pre-admission courses in the summer, you must apply for admission in February of the spring semester.
  • If you do not apply for admission to your major during the proper timeframe, you will not be permitted to pre-register for the restricted courses.
