Pre-Business is a lower two year program to prepare students

major are completed during the freshman and sophomore years.
An application to Business Administration is submitted at
the end of the sophomore year. Upon acceptance, students
become Business Administration majors and are then advised
in the Business Administration Department in the A. Gary
