Recommended Sequence of Courses
Students interested in pursuing a minor in Business should contact the Business Welcome Center Office, CF 112, to speak with an academic advisor. To be accepted into the minor program, undergraduate students must be pursuing a major program other than Accounting or Business Administration and must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 or higher. Students will be assigned an academic advisor for the Business minor program. That advisor will work with the student to develop a sequence of courses in conjunction with the student's major program and discuss the feasibility of completing both major and minor without extending the expected graduation date. The course sequence and timing below is a suggestion and will be adapted as appropriate to meet the individual student needs.
