Acceptance Criteria

What’s considered in your acceptance to the international business co-major?

1. Grades in ACCT 2101 and ACCT 2102
   Applicants currently enrolled in ACCT 2102 will be evaluated based on the grade in ACCT 2101

2. Grades in ECON 2105 and/or ECON 2106
   Applicants currently enrolled in one of these courses will be evaluated based on the grade in the completed course.

3. Grades in Mathematics courses
   Grades in MATH 1113, 2200, 2250 and 2260 are considered.

4. Standardized Testing
   Students are required to submit ACT or SAT scores and sub-scores to the University prior to being considered for admission to a major in the Terry College. In addition to required ACT/SAT scores, students may also supplement their application by submitting a score from the ETS Proficiency Profile if they believe their ACT/SAT scores do not represent their current performance level. IMPORTANT: Read detailed Testing Requirement instructions here.

5. The Statement of Purpose
   A brief essay (300-400 words) in which the applicant describes his/her interest in the major and his/her future goals. If applying the IB co-major, the first-choice Statement of Purpose should describe the interests/goals in IB and the level of foreign language the applicant has satisfied. If the applicant is proficient in a language without college credit, include this in the Statement of Purpose.

6. Grades in prefix courses
   Grades in courses previously complete in the prefix of the major to which the applicant is applying can be considered, but are not required, for admission to the major. For example, if applying to the RMIN major, grades in RMIN courses (e.g., RMIN 4000) can be considered. In addition, grades in the College's Foundation First courses (FINA 3000, MARK 3000, MGMT 3000), as well as MSIT 3000, can be considered by all majors if completed.

7. Foreign Language Requirement
   ​In order to apply for the IB co-major, the applicant must either be enrolled in or have completed the third (or higher) level of the same language; i.e., SPAN 2001 (has completed or exempted SPAN 1001 and SPAN 1002). A minimum grade of B required in each language course.
