To be admitted into the upper division program, FIU undergraduates and
transfer students must complete 60 credits, satisfy all four subsections
of the CLAST requirements, and have an overall GPA (transfer and FIU credits)
of 3.0 or higher. A waiver of the GPA requirement may be granted to a
very limited number of applicants upon faculty committee recommendation.
Students must score at least a 65 on the School's diagnostic English test
(GRAMMAR EXAM) to apply for this waiver.

In addition to verifying all requirements for admission, the school evaluates all previous course work to ascertain that the admitted student has met the university's general education or core curriculum requirements as well as those of the school and/or sequence. Furthermore, we strongly recommend that students complete any deficiencies within the first two semesters upon entering upper division status.
Writing Proficiency
All students are expected to demonstrate proficiency in writing. Students are required to enroll in Writing Strategies for Reaching a Mass Audience (MMC 3104) and receive a 'C' or higher. Admission to MMC 3104 requires the passing of a diagnostic English test. MMC 3104 is a prerequisite for a majority of your upper division SJMC course requirements.
