The Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science has an "Advanced Standing" structure. Progression to "Advanced Standing" is competitive and has specific GPA and course requirements. Advanced Standing is required for completion of this program. For more information visit the Department of Computer Science website: www.cs.arizona.edu .
Due to the dynamic nature of the field of computer science, it is recommended that students see their advisor each semester.
Prospective TRANSFER STUDENTS are highly advised to talk to a UA advisor well in advance of their planned transfer in order to ensure that they are taking advantage of all possible transfer course options. This will help enable a smooth transition to the UA and a timely graduation.
In order to progress to Advanced Standing, a student must have:
- a cumulative UA GPA of 2.4 or higher
- GPA of 3.0 or higher in best attempts at CSC 120, 210, & 244 taken at the UA or elsewhere.
- GPA of 2.0 or higher in all attempts at CSC courses (except as defined by university course repeat policies) taken at UA.
- at least two programming courses completed at the UA (CSC 110, CSC 120, CSC 210, CSC 252, CSC 317, CSC 335, CSC 337, CSC 346, CSC 352, CSC 372, CSC 343, CSC 380)
Students who do not qualify for Advanced Standing should schedule an appointment with their department advisor to discuss the criteria/process and create a potential plan for progressing to Advanced Standing in a future term.
Only one course from CSC 110, ECE 101, ECE 175, and ISTA 130 may be used towards the program.
Only one course from CSC 144, MATH 243 and MATH 323 may be used towards the program. Only one course from CSC 252 and ECE 369A may be used towards the program.
Only one course from CSC 380 and DATA/MATH 363 may be used towards the program.
Up to four approved courses (total) from another department, as defined below, may be used toward the BA in Computer Science major requirements:
1. ECE 101, ECE 175, or ISTA 130 may be used in lieu of CSC 110
2. MATH 243 or MATH 323 may be used in lieu of CSC 144
3. ECE 369A may be used in lieu of CSC 252
4. DATA/MATH 363 may be used in lieu of CSC 380.
Courses from another department (including cross-listed courses: ECE/CSC 474A, LING/CSC/PSY 438, LING/CSC/ISTA 439, MATH/MATV/CSC/CSCV 443, MATH/MATV/CSC/MATV 475A, MATH/MATV/CSC/CSCV 475B, PHIL/CSC/MATH 401A, PHIL/CSC/MATH 401B, PHIL/CSC/PSY/PSYC 455, MATH/PHIL/CSC 402) may not be used towards major requirements.
All CS students must be aware of the undergraduate course, Advanced Standing, and major policies unique to the Department of Computer Science. CS undergraduate policies may be viewed here:
