Business Administration

                                                                          

The Business Administration program is specifically designed to prepare students to transfer to those business schools that are accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).  In keeping with the AACSB’s educational philosophy, this program requires a strong foundation in higher level mathematics and quantitative reasoning that underlie business administration.

 

(Note: It is recommended that students desiring a more inclusive foundation in the business disciplines with less emphasis on higher level mathematics select the Business program (on the preceding page) which is also a transfer program.)

 

Program Entry Requirements:

 

Students are required to take the College’s placement test at their time of admission.  Students identified as needing developmental course work must satisfactorily complete the appropriate English and mathematics courses as part of their degree program.                                                                                                                           

                                                                                                                                               

Program of Study and Graduation Requirements:

 

To qualify for the Associate in Arts (A.A.) Degree in Business Administration, a student must complete a minimum of 61-credit hours as prescribed, earning a “C” or better grade in all courses and earning at least a 2.0 GPA.  Most receiving institutions require a higher grade point average.  To learn more about requirements of specific four year schools, students should contact an advisor within the Business Administration program, the career and transfer center here at CCP or the four year college to which they intend to transfer.
