Upon admission, students will be evaluated for statistical literacy. Students who need additional skills in this area are referred to BUSI 2342 (statistical literacy) until literacy requirement is fulfilled.

Statistical literacy (BUSI 2342) must be remedied in the first semester in which the student is accepted into the MBA program and must be taken before the student enrolls in ACCT6301, BUSI 6302, FINA 6320, FINA 6321, MNGT 6366, MRKT 6302 or electives in accounting, finance, management, or marketing.

MBA students will not be given graduate credit for courses taken when the letter grade earned is less than C. In addition, an MBA student may count no more than two C grades.

A degree candidate is required to maintain an overall average of B and maintain a GPA of 3.0 in every semester throughout his or her program of study.

Non-degree students may take up to six (6) credit hours of graduate business courses to meet certification requirements and continuing professional or personal development.

Non-degree students, however, must otherwise meet admission criteria for the Master of Business Administration or Master of Professional Accountancy program in order to take more than six credit hours of graduate business courses.

Non-degree students may register for MBA Online Courses only during late registration to give priority to degree-seeking students.

PS: Internships cannot be used as specialty courses to fulfill the emphasis/concentration requirements.
