UA reinstated most of its ACM programs beginning with the Fall semester of 2007. The bachelor’s degree programs in the College of Commerce and Business Administration (C&BA) and the bachelor’s and master’s programs in Human Environmental Sciences (HES), however, were not reinstated. There was a change in scholastic standards for first-time ACM certification, as well as an increased GPA requirement for continuation in the ACM each semester thereafter.
For students newly certified for Fall 2007 or any subsequent semester, the following two conditions are in effect:

(1) For first-time ACM certification, a new undergraduate or transfer student must have at least a 25 ACT composite score or 1130 SAT composite score (math and verbal only) and at least a 3.00 overall high school GPA.

(2) For continuing certification after the first semester of ACM support, each UA ACM student must maintain at least a 3.00 overall GPA on all UA course work attempted. This GPA standard is in addition to the long-standing requirements for maintaining residency and major.

A complete list of UA ACM programs by state, as well as an online ACM application, are available at http://graduate.ua.edu/academics/acm.html
 
NOTE. The SREB (Southern Regional Education Board) oversees the ACM. Its website (http://www.sreb.org) maintains the contact information for each state’s ACM coordinator and a list of UA’s currently approved ACM programs.
