A. Yes, in some cases that may be possible. Academic Adjustment forms for transfer credit are available in each academic department and in the Student Services Center in B116. The Academic Adjustment form, course syllabus, and a transcript showing your grade for the course must be taken to the department of the course you are trying to transfer. Be aware that requirements may differ between departments.
A. You must change your major in BroncoWeb. From the main BroncoWeb screen select “My Academics”. Select “Change My Major”. Use the search function to select your major. If you are majoring in General Business, it is under “Management”. If you choose to declare a minor use the search function to select your minor. Select the “Submit” button on the right. To verify that your major has changed, you may pull up an Academic Advisement Report (AAR) and check the section where the major is listed (it will be after the GE requirements section). The AAR has replaced the Degree Progress Report (DPR). For questions about the AAR visit the AAR FAQ.
Q. How do I find out about internship opportunities?
A. Check your department’s web site for information on finding an internship.
Q. Why should I get a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA)?
A. The BBA is a business degree, as compared to a Bachelor of Arts, or a Bachelor of Science. With a BBA many of your area core courses are preselected for you to include economics, math, and in the case of International Business, language.
Q. I already have a degree, where do I go for advising?
A. If you have an Associate’s degree, see the Student Services Center for information on how your credits will count towards a four year degree. If you already have a Bachelor’s degree and are returning for a second degree, you will need to go to the department of the major you have chosen for your second degree. They will complete a second degree checklist which will tell you what courses you will need to take.
Q. I am thinking about pursuing a minor. What do I need to do?
A. General Business Minor applications are available in the College of Business and Economics Student Services Center, in B116. Fill out this form and return it to the Student Services Center. When the application has been approved, a copy will be mailed to you. To declare a specific minor (e.g. Marketing), contact the department offering the minor for any application form or process that may be required. Be aware that not all departments require an application and some may require an advisory meeting to work out the required curriculum. See Major Requirements for minor course requirements.
