The Communication Studies Department regularly reviews the academic progress of prospective Digital Media Arts Majors.

Every freshman class will be evaluated for progress within the major when they are second-semester sophomores and have accumulated 45 credits. This evaluation reviews the overall GPA, the student’s GPA in DMA 201 and at least two other DMA courses, as well as a portfolio of the student’s work.

In regard to transfers, the department will review each after he/she has taken three DMA courses at Canisius.
