For students who matriculate into Ross as BBA First Years: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 30.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if a student has earned more than this. Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 30.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nFor Preferred Admission (PA) students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this. Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBBA CORE COURSES AND SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe BBA degree requires a minimum of 120.0 credits. 62.0 of these credits must be business credits, and 54.0 of the 120.0 total credits must be non-business credits (including credits used to meet distribution requirements). The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFirst Year BBA and PA students: The BBA program is organized to include 46.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 35.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents who complete courses offered specifically for non-business students (typically catalog number 302), prior to entering the BBA program will NOT earn credit for those courses toward the BBA degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPlease click here to browse course

Courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nBE 300:<\/strong> Effective Fall 2018, if a student has successfully completed ECON 401 at UM-Ann Arbor with a final grade of A- or higher, they can request to waive the BE 300 floating core requirement. To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU). The course must cover at least 4 credits of fourth-term material and be recognized as a course that fulfills the fourth-term foreign language proficiency to be accepted as HU.<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Natural Sciences (NS) and\/or Mathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Social Sciences (SS) (excludes ECON 101 & 102)<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nThe Inclusive Leaders Pathway is a degree requirement that is designed to introduce Ross students to the concepts of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in the contexts of their business education and roles as future business leaders. Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap.

The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree. Students who complete courses offered specifically for non-business students (typically catalog number 302), prior to entering the BBA program will NOT earn credit for those courses toward the BBA degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPlease click here to browse course descriptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSOPHOMORE YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 300: Financial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 102: Business Foundations (if not already completed prior to admission)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 200: Businesses & Leaders: The Positive Differences<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 250: Introduction to Business Communication<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 301: Business Analytics and Statistics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n4.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\nWinter term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 301: Managerial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nSTRATEGY 290: Business Strategy<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional approved business elective(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\nFall or Winter term courses and additional requirements<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: Principles of Economics II (Macroeconomics)\n\nECON 102 must be completed (and grade posted to a student\u2019s transcript) by the start of Junior Fall term<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\nNon-business coursework (to count toward distribution and\/or 54.0 required non-business credits)<\/li>\n\n\n\nComplete first and second Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 102 (which may be completed prior to admission) and BA 200<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nJUNIOR YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses \u2013 Ross Integrative Semester<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 350: Professional Communication Strategies<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBL 300: Business Law and Ethics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nMO 300: Behavioral Theory in Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 313: Operations Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nBE 300:<\/strong> Effective Fall 2018, if a student has successfully completed ECON 401 at UM-Ann Arbor with a final grade of A- or higher, they can request to waive the BE 300 floating core requirement. To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU).

Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBBA CORE COURSES AND SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe BBA degree requires a minimum of 120.0 credits. 62.0 of these credits must be business credits, and 54.0 of the 120.0 total credits must be non-business credits (including credits used to meet distribution requirements). The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree. Students who complete courses offered specifically for non-business students (typically catalog number 302), prior to entering the BBA program will NOT earn credit for those courses toward the BBA degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPlease click here to browse course descriptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSOPHOMORE YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 300: Financial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 102: Business Foundations (if not already completed prior to admission)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 200: Businesses & Leaders: The Positive Differences<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 250: Introduction to Business Communication<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 301: Business Analytics and Statistics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n4.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\nWinter term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 301: Managerial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nSTRATEGY 290: Business Strategy<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional approved business elective(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\nFall or Winter term courses and additional requirements<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: Principles of Economics II (Macroeconomics)\n\nECON 102 must be completed (and grade posted to a student\u2019s transcript) by the start of Junior Fall term<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\nNon-business coursework (to count toward distribution and\/or 54.0 required non-business credits)<\/li>\n\n\n\nComplete first and second Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 102 (which may be completed prior to admission) and BA 200<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nJUNIOR YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses \u2013 Ross Integrative Semester<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 350: Professional Communication Strategies<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBL 300: Business Law and Ethics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nMO 300: Behavioral Theory in Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 313: Operations Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nBE 300:<\/strong> Effective Fall 2018, if a student has successfully completed ECON 401 at UM-Ann Arbor with a final grade of A- or higher, they can request to waive the BE 300 floating core requirement. To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU). The course must cover at least 4 credits of fourth-term material and be recognized as a course that fulfills the fourth-term foreign language proficiency to be accepted as HU.<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Natural Sciences (NS) and\/or Mathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Social Sciences (SS) (excludes ECON 101 & 102)<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nThe Inclusive Leaders Pathway is a degree requirement that is designed to introduce Ross students to the concepts of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in the contexts of their business education and roles as future business leaders. Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBBA CORE COURSES AND SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe BBA degree requires a minimum of 120.0 credits. 62.0 of these credits must be business credits, and 54.0 of the 120.0 total credits must be non-business credits (including credits used to meet distribution requirements). The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree.

Courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nBE 300:<\/strong> Effective Fall 2018, if a student has successfully completed ECON 401 at UM-Ann Arbor with a final grade of A- or higher, they can request to waive the BE 300 floating core requirement. To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU).

Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBBA CORE COURSES AND SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe BBA degree requires a minimum of 120.0 credits. 62.0 of these credits must be business credits, and 54.0 of the 120.0 total credits must be non-business credits (including credits used to meet distribution requirements). The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree. Students who complete courses offered specifically for non-business students (typically catalog number 302), prior to entering the BBA program will NOT earn credit for those courses toward the BBA degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPlease click here to browse course descriptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSOPHOMORE YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 300: Financial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 102: Business Foundations (if not already completed prior to admission)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 200: Businesses & Leaders: The Positive Differences<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 250: Introduction to Business Communication<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 301: Business Analytics and Statistics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n4.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\nWinter term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 301: Managerial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nSTRATEGY 290: Business Strategy<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional approved business elective(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\nFall or Winter term courses and additional requirements<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: Principles of Economics II (Macroeconomics)\n\nECON 102 must be completed (and grade posted to a student\u2019s transcript) by the start of Junior Fall term<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\nNon-business coursework (to count toward distribution and\/or 54.0 required non-business credits)<\/li>\n\n\n\nComplete first and second Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 102 (which may be completed prior to admission) and BA 200<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nJUNIOR YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses \u2013 Ross Integrative Semester<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 350: Professional Communication Strategies<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBL 300: Business Law and Ethics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nMO 300: Behavioral Theory in Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 313: Operations Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n

To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU). The course must cover at least 4 credits of fourth-term material and be recognized as a course that fulfills the fourth-term foreign language proficiency to be accepted as HU.<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Natural Sciences (NS) and\/or Mathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Social Sciences (SS) (excludes ECON 101 & 102)<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nThe Inclusive Leaders Pathway is a degree requirement that is designed to introduce Ross students to the concepts of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in the contexts of their business education and roles as future business leaders. Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBBA CORE COURSES AND SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe BBA degree requires a minimum of 120.0 credits. 62.0 of these credits must be business credits, and 54.0 of the 120.0 total credits must be non-business credits (including credits used to meet distribution requirements). The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100.

To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU). The course must cover at least 4 credits of fourth-term material and be recognized as a course that fulfills the fourth-term foreign language proficiency to be accepted as HU.<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Natural Sciences (NS) and\/or Mathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Social Sciences (SS) (excludes ECON 101 & 102)<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nThe Inclusive Leaders Pathway is a degree requirement that is designed to introduce Ross students to the concepts of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in the contexts of their business education and roles as future business leaders. Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBBA CORE COURSES AND SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe BBA degree requires a minimum of 120.0 credits. 62.0 of these credits must be business credits, and 54.0 of the 120.0 total credits must be non-business credits (including credits used to meet distribution requirements). The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree. Students who complete courses offered specifically for non-business students (typically catalog number 302), prior to entering the BBA program will NOT earn credit for those courses toward the BBA degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPlease click here to browse course descriptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSOPHOMORE YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 300: Financial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 102: Business Foundations (if not already completed prior to admission)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 200: Businesses & Leaders: The Positive Differences<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 250: Introduction to Business Communication<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 301: Business Analytics and Statistics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n4.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\nWinter term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 301: Managerial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nSTRATEGY 290: Business Strategy<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional approved business elective(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\nFall or Winter term courses and additional requirements<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: Principles of Economics II (Macroeconomics)\n\nECON 102 must be completed (and grade posted to a student\u2019s transcript) by the start of Junior Fall term<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\nNon-business coursework (to count toward distribution and\/or 54.0 required non-business credits)<\/li>\n\n\n\nComplete first and second Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 102 (which may be completed prior to admission) and BA 200<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nJUNIOR YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses \u2013 Ross Integrative Semester<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 350: Professional Communication Strategies<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBL 300: Business Law and Ethics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nMO 300: Behavioral Theory in Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 313: Operations Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n

To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU).

Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap. AP credits will <\/em>not<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>count toward the Ross distribution requirements with the exception of some foreign language credits.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\nBBA CORE COURSES AND SCHEDULE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe BBA degree requires a minimum of 120.0 credits. 62.0 of these credits must be business credits, and 54.0 of the 120.0 total credits must be non-business credits (including credits used to meet distribution requirements). The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree. Students who complete courses offered specifically for non-business students (typically catalog number 302), prior to entering the BBA program will NOT earn credit for those courses toward the BBA degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPlease click here to browse course descriptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSOPHOMORE YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 300: Financial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 102: Business Foundations (if not already completed prior to admission)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 200: Businesses & Leaders: The Positive Differences<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 250: Introduction to Business Communication<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 301: Business Analytics and Statistics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n4.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\nWinter term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 301: Managerial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nSTRATEGY 290: Business Strategy<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional approved business elective(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\nFall or Winter term courses and additional requirements<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: Principles of Economics II (Macroeconomics)\n\nECON 102 must be completed (and grade posted to a student\u2019s transcript) by the start of Junior Fall term<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\nNon-business coursework (to count toward distribution and\/or 54.0 required non-business credits)<\/li>\n\n\n\nComplete first and second Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 102 (which may be completed prior to admission) and BA 200<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nJUNIOR YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses \u2013 Ross Integrative Semester<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 350: Professional Communication Strategies<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBL 300: Business Law and Ethics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nMO 300: Behavioral Theory in Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 313: Operations Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap.

The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree. Students who complete courses offered specifically for non-business students (typically catalog number 302), prior to entering the BBA program will NOT earn credit for those courses toward the BBA degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPlease click here to browse course descriptions<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSOPHOMORE YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 300: Financial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 102: Business Foundations (if not already completed prior to admission)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBA 200: Businesses & Leaders: The Positive Differences<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 250: Introduction to Business Communication<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 301: Business Analytics and Statistics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n4.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\nWinter term courses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nACC 301: Managerial Accounting<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nSTRATEGY 290: Business Strategy<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional: floating core course(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nOptional approved business elective(s)<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\nvaries<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\nFall or Winter term courses and additional requirements<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: Principles of Economics II (Macroeconomics)\n\nECON 102 must be completed (and grade posted to a student\u2019s transcript) by the start of Junior Fall term<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\nNon-business coursework (to count toward distribution and\/or 54.0 required non-business credits)<\/li>\n\n\n\nComplete first and second Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 102 (which may be completed prior to admission) and BA 200<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nJUNIOR YEAR<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFall term courses \u2013 Ross Integrative Semester<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n\n\n\nCredits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBCOM 350: Professional Communication Strategies<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n1.5<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nBL 300: Business Law and Ethics<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nMO 300: Behavioral Theory in Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\n\nTO 313: Operations Management<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n\n\n\n3.0<\/p>\n\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n

To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core. ECON 102 must be taken on a graded basis if completing the course at UM-Ann Arbor. Transfer courses that are equivalents based on the Office of Undergraduate Admissions transfer guide (http:\/\/www.ugadmiss.umich.edu\/TCE\/Public\/CT_TCESearch.aspx<\/a>) will be accepted.\u200b <\/li>\n\n\n\nBBA Distribution Requirements: Ross distribution is similar to the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts (LSA), with exceptions noted below. Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU).

Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings.

Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings.

A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree.

To make such a request, the student must complete and submit a BBA Waiver Request form<\/a> by the end of Winter term of their Junior year in the BBA program. Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree. No BBA core (fixed or floating) course other than those listed in this section may be waived.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nADDITIONAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\nECON 102: ECON 102 must be completed (and the grade posted to the student\u2019s transcript) prior to the start of Junior Fall term and the Ross Integrative Semester (RIS) core.

Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area.

The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement.

Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings.

The remaining 4.0 credits may be either business or non-business coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStudents entering the BBA program as Sophomores (cross-campus and external transfer students): the BBA program is organized to include 44.0 credits of required core (fixed and floating) courses, 33.5 credits of which must be taken in the prescribed (fixed) order. All BBA students complete those fixed core courses in an assigned cohort (or section) of students and may not drop or complete required fixed core courses out of sequence. 10.5 credits of core coursework is designated as \u201cfloating core.\u201d Students may elect to complete the floating core coursework in any sequence between the Fall term of Sophomore year and the Fall term of Senior year. A required capstone course<\/a> (credits vary) must also be completed in the Winter term of Senior year. Sophomore admits will also complete the following core courses on a slightly different path from BBA First Year students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\nYou will complete BA 102 instead of BA 100. BA 102 may be completed prior to admission into the BBA program and, if not, will need to be completed in the Fall of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will take BCOM 250 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n\n\n\nYou will also take ACC 300 during Fall term of Sophomore year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nIf a cross-campus transfer student completes a BBA course at the Ross School of Business prior to entering the BBA program and a minimum course grade of C was earned, those credits will count toward the Ross program requirements and the course may not be repeated for additional credit toward the BBA degree.

Please note: a waiver signifies the student has met competency in the material and does not grant credit. Therefore, a student who waives BE 300 would need to complete additional business coursework toward the 62.0 credits required for a BBA degree.

Students should refer to the LSA Course Guide (https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/cg\/<\/a>) to see if a course meets the requirements for a distribution area. Courses may have one of the following designations:\n\nForeign Language (Lang Req) \u200b<\/li>\n\n\n\nHumanities (HU) <\/li>\n\n\n\nNatural Science (NS)<\/li>\n\n\n\nMathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/li>\n\n\n\nSocial Science (SS) \u200b<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nClasses without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan.

The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement.

Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings.

Classes without one of the above designations may not be used toward an area distribution plan. Ross students must complete three of the following four requirements: <\/p>\n\n\n\nForeign Language (fourth-term proficiency in a language other than English: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by UM or by completion of a fourth-term college-level foreign language course. The language requirement cannot be satisfied by out-of-residence credit which is elected after the student has begun degree enrollment at the University of Michigan unless the appropriate language department has approved that plan in advance. AP, IB, A-level, and transfer coursework that meets fourth-term proficiency, as determined by the appropriate language department, fulfills this requirement. The final course in an elementary language sequence used to satisfy the language requirement must be elected on a graded basis.<\/td>0-20.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Humanities (HU)**Fourth term of a second foreign language may be used for HU credits (e.g., if an English-speaking student met Foreign Language requirement with Spanish and then took French classes through FR 232, FR 232 may count toward HU). The course must cover at least 4 credits of fourth-term material and be recognized as a course that fulfills the fourth-term foreign language proficiency to be accepted as HU.<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Natural Sciences (NS) and\/or Mathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA) <\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr>Social Sciences (SS) (excludes ECON 101 & 102)<\/td>9.0 credits<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n\nThe Inclusive Leaders Pathway is a degree requirement that is designed to introduce Ross students to the concepts of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging in the contexts of their business education and roles as future business leaders. Students must complete all four components of the milestone requirement to receive the BBA degree. This year, you will complete your first Inclusive Leaders Pathway Milestone through BA 100. Your BA 100 Canvas site will have information about how to fulfill the requirement. You can also reference the BBA Bulletin<\/a>, talk with your academic advisor, or reach out to BBAmilestone@umich.edu.<\/li>\n\n\n\nBusiness Elective Credits: Students must complete enough business elective courses so that their fixed core, floating core, capstone, and business electives total 62.0 credits or more. Business elective courses cross-listed with other schools will count only as business credit. Students who complete business courses offered specifically for non-business students (e.g., BA 201, ES 212, FIN 275, MKT 302, etc.) will NOT earn credit for those courses toward their 62.0 business credit requirement nor toward their 54.0 non-business requirement. The course(s) will count toward a student\u2019s 120.0 total degree credit requirement and their cumulative GPA. <\/li>\n\n\n\nRoss Capstone Course Requirement: Students must elect one required Ross capstone course in the Winter term of their Senior or final year in the BBA program. Capstone courses make connections between academic learning and the professional world; they include topics that address complex concepts, require diverse skills and perspectives, and are relevant to future professional endeavors. Some capstone courses also include an Action-Based Learning (or ABL) component, allowing students to have a direct customer\/stakeholder interaction and a deliverable that integrates learning and analysis and applies it to a real-world situation. Students can discuss their course selection and planning for a capstone course with their academic advisor. See the BBA capstone requirement website<\/a> for current course offerings. All fixed core and floating core business coursework must be completed prior to taking a capstone course, with the exception of BA 400 which is to be taken during the Winter term of Senior year, as well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nBBA Sophomores Starting in Fall 2025 or Fall 2026<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\nCREDITS ACCEPTED FOR TRANSFER TO THE BBA PROGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor students who matriculate into Ross at the start of Sophomore year: the BBA program will apply a maximum of 45.0 transferable credits earned prior to the start of the BBA program toward the 120.0 credits required for the BBA degree, even if you have earned more than this.\u00a0 Individual courses may be applied to general degree requirements, such as distribution and the 54.0 non-business credit requirement beyond this 45.0 credit hour cap.
