8.4. What are the admission requirements for the AMP?

Math/SDS Majors and Minors → Accelerated Master's Programs → What are the admission requirements for the AMP?

The minimum admission requirements for either program are as follows; since the program is accelerated, meeting the minimum requirements will not guarantee admission. A typical successful applicant will have almost all As in critical undergraduate major classes. 

• While 3.3 is the minimum GPA officially required, a more realistic GPA expectation is 3.7.
• Completion of a minimum of 75 undergraduate credit hours will be required at the time of application; a minimum of 90 undergraduate credit hours will be required at the time of entry into the AMP. If the student's GPA falls below 3.3 at the time they have completed 90 units, the student will not be admitted into the program (as per catalog policy). Courses taken for audit may not be included in the total number of units counted for eligibility or admission.
• Completion of at least 12 earned undergraduate credits in their major at The University of Arizona's main campus. Units still graded Incomplete, units graded Pass/Fail or units taken as audit will not count toward the requirement of the 12 undergraduate units.
• Completion or near completion of general education requirements.

The SDS AMP requires an undergraduate major (B.A. or B.S.) in either Statistics & Data Science or Mathematics; Mathematics majors must be completing either the Probability & Statistics emphasis or the Applied Mathematics emphasis, unless special permission is granted by the graduate program for another emphasis.

The Applied Math AMP requires an undergraduate major (B.A. or B.S.) in Mathematics with the Applied Mathematics emphasis.
