Capped major minimum GPA req

<p>For example, for ORMS, one of the requirements is that students must "maintain a 3.2 GPA in Math 53 and 54, Econ 1, 2, or 3, and BA 10." Does this mean they need to earn B+s or better in each course or have any combination of grades that earns them a 3.2+? My answer was it's the latter, but I'd like to be sure.</p>

<p>While on the topic, what are your thoughts of someone with a C+ in Math 54 and a 3.5 for major req'd classes applying for ORMS? Is that just begging to be rejected?</p>

<p>Sorry to be off topic, but weren’t you previously going for CS? What made you change your mind?</p>

<p>Oh, no no. I’m definitely still doing CS. Someone entering Cal as a freshman next year was trying to find a major and was wondering about capped majors, specifically ORMS. I just didn’t want to give false information. As for the grade in Math 54…In a community college course, he received a B. He figured, worst case scenario, he’ll do worse since Cal’s math is definitely tougher than his CC’s.</p>
