Requirements for the Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.)  Degree - 2007-2008 Catalog

RESPONSIBILITY OF THE STUDENT

The student must become familiar with the academic policies, curriculum requirements and associated deadlines posted in this catalog, which is available in both paper and electronic versions. The academic advisor will advise the student on all matters related to his/her program of study and will aid the student in the interpretation of policies whenever necessary. However, it is ultimately the student’s responsibility to be cognizant of and comply with all university policies and procedures and to meet all stated requirements for the degree. It is also the student’s responsibility to frequently monitor campus email and the university web site, as these electronic means of communication have replaced mass mailing as the university’s most effective and efficient ways to disseminate important information to the campus community.

 

 

GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS

The General Education curriculum is designed to ensure that students gain knowledge, abilities, and experiences in eight broad areas of study: communication, fine arts, health and wellness, humanities, international and intercultural studies, mathematical sciences, physical and natural sciences, and social and behavioral sciences.

 Students must have at least a 2.0 grade point average (GPA) in the eight pre-business courses and junior standing (56 hours) before being admitted into a business major.

 

LBUS

Pre-business students are placed in the “LBUS” category during the term in which they expect to complete all pre-business requirements and are allowed to register conditionally for upperdivision business and economics courses for the next term. Final acceptance into a business major and enrollment in upper-division business and economics courses is dependent upon verification that all pre-business requirements have been met with a 2.0 average.
