Major Declaration
Freshmen admission to engineering majors is to a ‘pre-major’ status (i.e., Pre-Civil Engineering). Continuation in the major will be subject to meeting specific lower division course and GPA requirements at CSULB that indicate the student’s ability to succeed and complete the major. Transfer applicants and CSULB students seeking admission into Civil Engineering must also meet similar major specific requirements. To become fully admitted into the Civil Engineering major, all prospective students (i.e., pre-majors, undeclared, major changes) must have a minimum cumulative 2.5 GPA and complete the following lower-division courses with a minimum grade of “C” prior to earning 60 units:
Core Lower Division Major Requirements:

Degree Progress
Students must complete the following requirements within one calendar year of declaring the major. Some students may need to take courses during Summer Session to meet these requirements. At the end of the year, students who have not met the requirements must either declare another major or meet with an Academic Advisor to determine if the student’s performance in the courses merits an additional semester to complete.
