Undergraduate admission on probationary status

Undergraduate applicants (freshmen or transfers) that have been reviewed, but do not meet minimum admission requirements to the university, may be admitted on a probationary status.

Those on probationary status must earn a minimum 2.0 GPA in their first 12 semester hours at Brenau to be removed from probationary status.

After you register, the bookstore bundles all the books you need for your classes.
