Direct Admission

Direct Admission is a program designed to encourage honors students to take foundation courses at the University of Arizona.

Students qualify for Direct Admission if they:

• Maintain a minimum 3.5 cumulative GPA at the time of application
• Take all of the foundation courses at the UA
• Are on track for first level honors

Students will still be eligible if they have credit for foundation courses through AP/IB/CLEP as well as any dual enrollment taken through a college or university while still in high school. Students who meet the above criteria will be guaranteed:

• Professional admission
• First choice of major
• Professional Admission interview by someone in their field of interest

This program begins with students admitted as Non-Transfer Freshman for the Fall of 2007. Click here to learn about the first student to be part of the Direct Admission program.
