Academic Calendar 2006
(Old Programs)

To be considered for admission to the second year of the Combined Honors program in Computer Science and MIT, a student must achieve a minimum overall weighted average of 75.0% in 5.0 full-course equivalents numbered 001-099 (including the principal courses for the program) with no unsatisfactory attempts.

The selection process for admission to second year of the MIT Combined Honors program is based on a student carrying a full course load, including the MIT first-year prerequisites. Eligibility is determined by a student's overall weighted average obtained at the end of the academic year. In cases where the number of applicants exceeds the number of spaces, admission will be competitive. Attainment of the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission.

Computer Science 025a/b or 026a/b, and 027a/b; one full course or equivalent, chosen from the following: Mathematics 030, Applied Mathematics 026, Calculus 050a/b, 051a/b, 081a/b, Linear Algebra 040a/b; Media, Information and Technoculture 025a/b, and 026a/b

Computer Science 208a/b, 210a/b, and 211a/b; Mathematics 222a and 223b; Writing 121F/G; three of Media, Information and Technoculture 201F/G, 202F/G, 203a/b, and 204F/G

0.5 option

Computer Science 209a/b, and 212a/b/y (both to be taken in third year); the half-course from Media, Information and Technoculture 201F/G, 202F/G, 203a/b, and 204F/G not taken in second year; 4.0 MIT full-course equivalents at the 200-level or higher; 3.5 Computer Science full-course equivalents at the 300-level or higher

1.0 option

To progress to the third and fourth years of the Honors BA program in Computer Science and MIT, a student must achieve a minimum overall weighted average of 72% in MIT courses taken in each academic session, and a 70% average with no individual grade below 60% in the Computer Science and Mathematics principal courses, in each case with no unsatisfactory attempts.

To graduate with an Honors BA in Computer Science and MIT, a student must achieve a minimum overall weighted average of 72% in MIT courses counted towards the degree, and a minimum average of 70% with no individual grade below 60% in the Computer Science and Mathematics principal courses counted toward the degree, in each case with no unsatisfactory attempts.
