The WSU College of Business (CB) strives to offer the highest quality programs to its students and to ensure that students accepted into the college have access to courses in their major. These goals are aligned with those established by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) which serve to ensure quality educational standards in accredited institutions. The following application process is part of the quality strategy now being employed by the CB.

College of Business Policy on Business GPA and Decertification
To assure that all certified majors in business meet the required 2.5 business GPA to graduate, all currently certified business majors* must maintain a 2.5 business GPA or better each semester until they graduate. Any certified business major who falls below a business GPA of 2.5 for one semester will be on academic probation with the College of Business. If the student falls below the required 2.5 business GPA for a second semester, the CB will be forced to decertify the student as stated in the WSU Catalog under the University Decertification Academic Policy.
