Adjournment sjd/sjd CONSOLIDATED STUDENTS SENATE RESOLUTION 15-13 Submitted by: Senator Jeff Chadwell, Senator Therese Kowalczyk, Student Kevin Stevens >15, RE: GPA REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION Whereas, the quality of a university is dependent on the quality of its students; and Whereas, an accurate measure of a student's quality is her or his performance in high school; and Whereas, UNLV's admission standards are Loi<7 as compared to most colleges; and Whereas, if an applicant is not admitted to UNLV, there are other post-secondary opportunities available; and Whereas, a prospective student can use these educational opportunities to gain admission to UNLV; and Whereas, statistical analysis has shown that the percentage of students with a grade point average between the current standard and the proposed standard is negligible; therefore be it RESOLVED BY THE CONSOLIDATED STUDENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, REPRESENTED IN THE CSUN SENATE, That we stand in favor of the proposed change in admission requirements for out of state students from a 2.3 GPA to a 2.5 GPA; and be it further RESOLVED, That CSUN strongly recommends that the admission requirements for in state students be changed from 2.0 GPA to a 2.5.
