BS Business Admin. Multiple Concentrations - mednat - 09-04-2014
I was told by a business adviser at Excelsior that it is not possible to have multiple concentrations, ie: BS Business Administration - IT mgmt & BS Business Administration - Accounting. Do any of the big 3 allow this? Essentially allowing the use of free business electives to fill in requirements for a secondary concentration? I was thinking somewhere I had read that this was possible, but the excelsior adviser was pretty clear that this scenario would require 30 additional credits after conferral of the first degree.

TESC will allow two areas of study in the BSBA. For example, you can earn a BSBA in Accounting and Computer Information Systems at the same time. However, you won't be using free electives to meet the requirements for the second area of study. TESC's BSBA only has room for 6 credits in free electives. However, your business core and business electives can be the same. TESC only requires that the two areas of study not share more than 9 credits. If you're interested in more than two business concentrations, TESC also offers undergraduate certificates in many business fields. There is no limit to how many of those you can earn.

Thanks! That's exactly what I was wanting to know.
