Minimum standards for enrollment in MRTS courses
Completion of 12 credit hours at UNT and at least a 2.75 UNT GPA.
MRTS majors must maintain a UNT GPA of 2.75. MRTS major students whose GPAs fall below this standard will be informed of their status by the Media Arts department and will not be able to take any classes in the Media Arts department until they return their UNT GPA to 2.75 or better.
Hours required and general/college requirements
A minimum of 120 semester hours, of which 42 must be advanced, and fulfillment of degree requirements for the Bachelor of Arts degree as specified in the “University Core Curriculum” in the Academics section of this catalog and the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences requirements.
Other requirements
A minimum 2.0 cumulative UNT GPA and a 2.75 major GPA is required to graduate. Only 12 hours of MRTS courses taken at other institutions may be applied toward the 42-hour requirement toward the major.
Students majoring in Media Arts are required to have a minimum grade of C in all MRTS courses to count toward the major. Students may have only two attempts for a grade of C or better for each required MRTS course.
Students must observe prerequisites for each MRTS course. If a student has not completed prerequisites for a course with a grade of C or better, the student is subject to administrative drop from the course without notice. Prerequisites are listed with individual course descriptions.
Students may register for only one section of a course at a time. Students registered for more than one section of a course will be dropped from all sections of that course without notice. The policy does not apply to courses such as special topics, which may bear the same course number but are different topics and are therefore different courses.
Specific competency and departmental approval for internship, seminar and special problem courses are required.
