  • Earn a C or better in all OSH classes;
  • Complete an application for admission to the program
  • Be successfully reviewed by the OSH program admissions committee;

Admission is competitive and based on available space. Admission is subject to application and careful evaluation by the OSH program admissions committee.

  • All occupational safety and health majors and minors must earn a grade of "C" or better in all OSH courses.
    Any OSH course with a grade below a "C" must be repeated. The maximum number of times a student may enroll in an OSH class is twice; this includes audits and withdrawals after the first week class. Exceptions would be made only if the student was forced to drop the class due to a life-changing event and not due to performance in class. If a grade less than "C" is received in any OSH course for a second time, the course cannot be repeated and the student is dismissed from the program and is not eligible for readmission.
  • A cumulative grade point average of at least 2.50 must be maintained to graduate.
