Admissions Requirements

All matriculated BYUH and transfer students may be admitted into the School of Computing.

Graduation Requirements

Students majoring in Mathematics must complete all lower division courses with a C- or better. No more than one upper division course in which a D (D-, D, or D+) is received may be used to meet the major requirements. Students are allowed no more than one D (D-, D, or D+) grade in any of the requirements for the Computer Science and Information Systems majors.

Transfer Students

The transfer credit evaluator in the Admissions Office at BYUH will determine application of transfer credit to General Education requirements. The School of Computing academic advisor assists in evaluating major requirements. Since transcripts list only the course number and name, students should bring a copy of the catalog description and a syllabus of those courses taken that they wish to use to fulfill BYUH requirements. Transfer courses numbered at the freshmen or sophomore levels cannot be transferred for courses at BYUH at the junior or senior level.

Transfer students from international institutions should provide some description of the institution from which they wish to transfer credit. If the institution is verified as meeting standards of academic accreditation, the 100- and 200-level courses, primarily core course, will be reviewed for transfer credit. If the student is unable to verify the quality of the institution or the Dean of the school believes that it does not meet an acceptable standard, the Dean will not approve the transfer credits.
