Credit Requirements

You need at least 129 credits, but you might graduate with as few as 122 credits if you use certain options (like dual-applying two business courses across your Discovery Tier Theme to Business Core or Business Major Requirements/Electives and/or waiving the BUAD 1060 Excel 1 cr. course by exam). See the "Forms" tab. These are the only pathways for a student to graduate with less than 129 credits and earn a B.S. in Business Administration degree.
