Admission to Journalism major
All students entering UNT and wishing to pursue the bachelor of arts degree with a major in journalism enter as pre-majors. Before applying for journalism major status, pre-majors must complete at least 45 hours of college course work including the following:
- Complete the following plus one other specified pre-major course with a 2.5 GPA or better;
- The journalism math requirement for all concentrations,
- The university English composition requirement with a grade of C or better; and
- Successful completion of the Grammar, Spelling and Punctuation (GSP) exam.
Pre-majors who have completed the above requirements and who have a cumulative UNT GPA of at least 2.5 may file a formal application for major status. Approved majors may enroll in those advanced courses designated “journalism majors/minors only.”
Admission for transfer students
Students transferring to UNT from other colleges and universities may fulfill many of these requirements through transfer course work. Transfer students must pass the Grammar, Spelling and Punctuation (GSP) exam, administered by the University Writing Lab, during their first term/semester at UNT.
Admission for post-baccalaureate students
Students who have already completed a baccalaureate degree from an accredited university may be admitted to the journalism major prior to completion of the pre-major requirements provided their overall GPA in all college work attempted is at least 2.5. Post-baccalaureate majors must still abide by all course prerequisites and sequence restrictions. |
