<p>im just curious would i have any chance of getting into MSU with a 3.05 gpa with 57 credits at the time i apply. I really want to go to the business school more than anything and i had to work my way up BIGTIME from starting off with a 2.18 gpa after my first semester of college ever and im planning on getting between at least a 3.65 and possibly a 4.0 this fall semester along with taking 2 winter classes to boost up my gpa beyond a 3.0 by the time i apply.</p>
<p>It’s going to be a bit of a reach. If you could get your GPA up to a 3.3, 3.4 your chances would improve very much. </p>
<p>Have you fulfilled a lot of gen ed requirements for MSU? They seem to look favorably on candidates who have fulfilled many gen eds.</p>
<p>Yeah I’ve heard that if your transfer GPA is 3.0 or higher in most disciplines you should be okay. However, are you transferring into the broad college of business right away or are you applying as a pre-business major (and then will later apply into broad)? Because broad majors I think have a requirement of a 3.1 GPA (3.3 for accounting majors) to get in so it might be more difficult. I’d say you have a shot, but it is definitely not a for-sure thing. Make sure to just get the best GPA that you possibly can before you apply</p>
<p>I want to apply to the broad college of business right away, but im pretty sure im going to have barely above a 3.0 gpa, i would guess around a 3.05, but i definetely going to have a 3.0 at the minimum. And romanigypsyeyes i finished 3/4 of the general education requirements except the damned math unless they count statistics as math because i didnt fare too well in calculus. if it helps out at all ive had an upward trend. my first semester of college i had a 2.18 gpa. Second semester i had a 3.1 gpa. and now im going to have at the bare minimum a 3.6 gpa, and i’m also taking a couple of winter courses too so my overall gpa will definitely be above a 3 by the time im done with the winter courses</p>
<p>come on guys im really curious i appreciate all replies</p>
<p>College of Business majors</p>
<p>Note the change in admission requirements beginning with Spring 2010 applicants</p>
<p>Applicable to students interested in majoring in accounting, finance, general business administration-prelaw, general management, human resources management, or marketing and supply chain management. Students interested in majoring in hospitality business should refer to the separate hospitality business requirements.</p>
<p>To be considered for admission into a major in MSU’s Eli Broad College of Business, students with 56 or more transferable credits must have a minimum overall GPA of 3.4 (3.5 for accounting majors), a 3.2 GPA in the prerequisite courses, and no grade below a 2.0 in any individual prerequisite course.</p>
<p>Applicants with more than 56 transferable credits must have equivalent course work to reflect one math, one accounting, one economics, and one additional course from these prerequisite courses:</p>
<pre><code>* Financial Accounting (ACC 201)
- Managerial Accounting (ACC 202)
- Microeconomics (EC 201)
- Macroeconomics (EC 202)
- Computing Concepts (CSE 101)
</code></pre>
<p>Admission decisions are based primarily on cumulative University grade-point average and grades in the core courses listed above. Academic and non-academic factors and experiences will also be considered. </p>
<p>This is what I go by. Also, I am pretty sure you have to take all five of those classes before you can apply.</p>
<p>i am going to have 4 out of those 5 classes by the time im done with this spring semester. the 3.4 gpa requirement is the same for both students attending the liberal arts college in MSU(or w.e its called idk) and regular transfers like me coming from a different college altogether? what woudl be my chances in the liberal arts school so that then i can go there for a semester and then transfer.</p>
<p>Bump. I know its a couple years old, but could someone answer this question? How does it work, when applying to broad, in terms of gap requirements for 1) an msu undergrad. and 2) a transfer from another university</p>
<p>You might want to make your own thread :). </p>
<p>Fwiw- I don’t know anything about Broad. My advice would be to contact them directly. Someone on here might have answers but I don’t believe any of our regulars are in Broad.</p>
