Designed To Be Taken in Conjunction With a Major From Another School Within the University

The Bachelor of Arts in Business

• Is distinct from the Busch School Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (B.S.B.A.) and Bachelor of Science in Accounting (B.S.A.) degrees because it is designed to be taken only as a secondary major, part of a double major in conjunction with a major from one of the other Schools of the University.
• Cannot be taken alone. Students who wish to major in business alone must complete the requirements for the B.S.B.A. Students who wish to prepare for the Certified Public Accountant (C.P.A.) exam must complete the requirements of the B.S. in Accounting.
• Requires:
  • 10 three-credit courses
  • Two one-credit pass/fail career preparation BUS X99 courses
  • The Foundations of Mathematical Thinking requirement of the Liberal Arts core must be fulfilled with MATH 110 (MATH 111, 121 or 122 are also accepted).
• Is compatible with any major with 14 courses or fewer (although some overlap with the Liberal Arts core will be required in order to make the double-major work, and students needing introductory language courses may have to take summer courses).

The degree is open to students from any School, including Arts & Sciences, Philosophy, Theology & Religious Studies, and Music, Drama, & Art. The degree requirements in the Schools of Nursing, Engineering, and Architecture are presumed to be too many to admit of the possibility of this double-major. Course sequences would be set up in collaboration with each of the schools that choose to make the double major available to its students.

As part of a double major, it satisfies the Focus requirement of the Liberal Arts Core.

Students who meet the minimum requirement (have at least a 3.2 CUM GPA and have completed 60 credit hours) may ues this form to Apply for the Double Major
