Admission to the Business Administration Major


Admission to the Business Administration major involves two steps. Students who apply to the major are initially classified as Pre-Business. After completing the lower-division core requirements with a “C” (2.0) or better, students may apply to the Business Administration major.

All of the following requirements must be met for the degree. Students must earn a “C” (2.0) or better in each core course listed below. For assistance in interpreting these requirements, contact the Business Advising Center.

Required Concentration Courses (18-24 units)


See listing of concentration requirements below.

Other Requirements, Grades and Residence


Grade-Point Average (GPA). Maintain at least a 2.0 gradepoint average in all college level units attempted, in all units attempted at CSUF, in all units attempted in the major and in all units attempted in the concentration. Earn at least a “C” (2.0) in each core course and in each of the following concentrations: Accounting, Information Systems and Decision Sciences. A “C-” (1.7) or lower is not a passing grade.

Grade option. Take all required core courses and all required concentration courses in the Mihaylo College of Business and Economics for a letter grade (A,B,C,D,F). The Credit/No Credit grading option may not be used for these courses, and a grade of CR (credit) will not satisfy the  requirements for the degree. Exception: Courses in calculus may be taken under the Credit/No Credit grading option; however, if it is also taken to meet general education requirements then it must be taken for a letter grade.

Residence. At least 30 units in the major and at least one-half of the units in the concentration (except Accounting, which requires 15) must be taken in residence in the Mihaylo College of Business and Economics; at least 15 of the last 24 units before graduation must be taken in residence in the Mihaylo College of Business and Economics.
