Editing CSU Business Administration Degree Plan

== Business Administration Degree Plan ==
Here is a Business Administration Degree Plan for [[University of Maryland Global Campus]] (UMGC) as of approximately March of 2024. Please make sure that the suggestions are still valid before beginning to follow this plan.

=== Alt Courses===
The alternative credit courses were handpicked using experience from previous students regarding which courses will be the easiest and quickest to take. 
===Tips on Order in Which to Complete Courses===
Start with [[Sophia.org]]. Unfortunately, Sophia only allows two courses to be open at one time, so only complete one course at a time that has touchstones (written assignments). Once done with Sophia, move on to Study.com.
===How Long Will It Take To Complete This Degree Once I Finish All the Alterative Credits?===
Terms are 8 weeks long. Typically, you will take 2 classes per term which is full-time. If you transfer in 90 credits, you could complete a degree in around 10-12 months.     

===Source of Credit===

This degree plan was made using this source to map out all the alternative credits.

== General Education Requirements | 30 Credits ==
There are a total of 30 credits worth of General Education Requirements.

Please refer to the [[CSU !General Education Requirements Roadmap|CSU GE Requirements Roadmap]] for details and suggestions on courses that will fulfill this requirement.

== Business Administration Major | 51 Credits ==

There is only an equivalency guide for Sophia so it is unknown how courses from other providers will transfer in. 

I suggest trying to find Study.com courses for Principles of Marketing, Human Resource Management or Information Systems Management. If you can find 2 courses, then you can do a concentration without having to do more than 10 courses at CSU.

Take whatever courses you want for electives. Concentrations are only 12 credits so consider adding on a concentration considering it won't add on to the total amount of course you must do at CSU.
