The BS in Business Administration consists of 124 total credit hours, including 48 dedicated to major-specific courses. The BAS requires 62 credit hours and 45 are major-specific courses.  Only students who have previously completed an Associate’s degree of Applied Science (A.A.S.) are eligible to apply to the B.A.S. program.  Students may transfer hours into either program as appropriate.
