Undecided HRD Status

Pre-HRD Status
Students are placed into this status when they first enter the HRD program and their overall GPA is a 2.0 or above. At the request of the student, an appointment with the HRD adviser will be arranged to facilitate the formation and adoption of a program plan. Students are allowed to take courses in General Education, General Electives, HRD Core and 8 credits of HRD major courses in this status.

Admission to Major Standing in HRD
To be admitted to major standing a student must satisfy the following requirements:

1. Complete a minimum of 40 credits at an accredited college or university with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better. Courses that carry no numerical or letter grade (such as S/U) are excluded from calculation of the GPA 
2. Complete the HRD core courses with a minimum grade of C+ (2.8 for classes prior to Fall 2018) in each course. 
3. Submit an Application for Major Standing during the semester in which the student expects to complete the core requirements.
