Sample TESU Business Core Roadmap
Information[edit]
BSBA degrees all have the same core requirements. In that regard, they can be thought of as similar to gen eds: everyone with a BSBA is going to need these courses. See the general education requirements roadmap for information on actual gen ed requirements, as well as links to how to fill AOS requirements for different BSBA degrees at TESU.
Upper Level Requirement[edit]
Important information: While most Business Core requirements can be filled with LL courses, at least 1 of these courses must be UL. It is up to the student to determine which UL course to take. (Note: there is conflicting information regarding whether an UL course is actually required in this area or not.)
