BUS 210 Principles of Macroeconomics or MBA 210 Principles of Macroeconomics non-credit workshop
BUS 320 Principles of Finance or MBA 320 Principles of Finance non-credit workshop

*Three of the business prerequisites can be satisfied through 8-week online workshops. Workshops are non-credit bearing, 8 weeks in length, completely online and self-paced, and can be started at any time. Workshops can be completed one at a time or simultaneously (student’s choice). The cost is $300 per workshop; 50 percent of this is applied to the corresponding, credit-bearing MBA courses when students enroll for those. Students may begin taking MBA courses; however, a student may not take a MBA course that requires an undergraduate business prerequisite.
