He is talking about OSU.
I don’t think OSU is a direct-admit university, and judging from the website to declare you need
to satisfy a certain GPA in the core classes, and if the major goes “impacted” i.e. if they have too many students wanting to declare, these requirements may shoot up.
RPI I believe accepts into major, and, in general, private schools are more flexible in these matters.
OSU:
CPHR* of at least 3.3 and MPHR** of at least 2.7
CPHR* of at least 3.0 and MPHR** of at least 3.2 having completed CSE 2221, 2231, and 2321
B+ i major incl CS classes may not be as easy as it seems, especially if some of these courses are “weeder” courses, i.e. designed to make most student struggle either because of rigor, or workload, or both.
