AACSB BUSINESS ACCREDITATION The College of Business Administration is fully accredited by AACSB International—The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. AACSB International accreditation represents the highest standard of achievement for business schools worldwide. AACSB accreditation is the hallmark of excellence in management and business administration education which accredits less than 5% of the colleges of business worldwide. Organized in 1916, AACSB International is considered the premier accrediting organization for undergraduate and graduate degree programs in business administration. Universities that earn AACSB accreditation confirm their commitment to quality and continuous improvement through a rigorous and comprehensive peer review. About one third of the nation’s approximately 1,200 postsecondary business programs have achieved this prestigious accreditation. AACSB accreditation assures students and graduates that their business programs have completed rigorous evaluation and peer review and that the college mission and goals have
been achieved through qualified faculty, relevant curriculum, adequate learning resources, and effective policies and practices. Employers view AACSB International accreditation as a sign that a prospective employee has received a high quality business education. Communities view AACSB International accreditation as an indication of the availability of a highly qualified managerial workforce in their region.
This AACSB accreditation honor is one more indication of excellence in undergraduate and graduate business education at CSU Stanislaus.

The courses are upper-division level, which can only be completed at a 4-year institution and require junior standing.
CONCENTRATION REQUIREMENTS
Concentrations provide the opportunity for specialized study in a selected area of interest. Seven concentration options are available to choose from and it is recommended to declare a concentration by your junior year. The courses are upper-division level and require junior standing.

For Your Information
Useful information for business administration students to better assist you with your education at CSU Stanislaus and in the College of Business Administration WHEN IN DOUBT, CHECK THE UNIVERSITY CATALOG The University Catalog is located on the CSU Stanislaus website. The catalog includes all university and major policies and procedures, programs, course offerings, prerequisite requirements and much more.
CATALOG YEAR
Your catalog year begins when you enter the CSU or a California Community College system and take an academic course for credit. This establishes the university and major requirements required for graduation, regardless of changes the university or major make thereafter. It is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the catalog you are assigned.

First Time Freshman Freshman Advising
ENGLISH AND MATH PLACEMENT TEST (EPT/ELM)
The CSU requires that each entering undergraduate, except those who qualify for an exemption (SAT, ACT, AP Courses, etc.) take the CSU Entry Level Mathematics (ELM) examination and the CSU English Placement Test (EPT) prior to enrollment.
EARLY START
All new freshman students who have not demonstrated collegereadiness in Mathematics and English will need to begin work on becoming ready for college-level work before the start of their first term. Students with the following will have to participate in Early Start: • ELM score less than 50 and/or • EPT score less than 138
ENGLISH PLACEMENT TEST (EPT)
The English Placement Test (EPT) is designed to assess the level of reading and writing skills of students. Scores on the EPT determine if you will need to enroll in the Early Start Program (EPT score less than 138) or if you can start your entry-level English composition classes in your first semester.
34
DIRECTED SELF PLACEMENT (DSP)
DSP is the only method used at CSU Stanislaus to place students into First-Year Composition. Although some students are required to take the English Placement Test (EPT), those scores are not used for placement decisions. Students are given guidance in Directed Self Placement before selecting one of the options below: • First-Year Composition: ENGL 1001, which fulfills GE area A2. • First-Year Composition (Computer Assisted): ENGL 1002, which fulfills GE area A2. • First-Year Composition (Stretch):
• ENGL 1006 (Stretch A), which fulfills GE area E1, and
• ENGL 1007 (Stretch B), which fulfills GE area A2.
• Editing for Language and Dialect: ESL 1000, which fulfills GE area C3. • Essay Skills for Language and Dialect: ESL 1005, which fulfills GE area C3. • ESL 1000 or 1005 together with the First-Year Composition Stretch sequence.
ENTRY LEVEL MATHEMATICS (ELM) EXAM
The Entry Level Mathematics (ELM) Exam is designed to asses and measure the level of math skills acquired through 3 years of rigorous college preparatory mathematics coursework (Algebra I, & II, and Geometry) of students entering the CSU. ELM Score

WRITING PROFICIENCY SCREENING TEST (WPST)
All students must demonstrate competency in writing skills as a requirement for graduation. The WPST is also a prerequisite to the writing proficiency (WP) course (BUS 3100 or ACC 3125) for the business administration major. We encourage students to take the test after you have completed 30 units and your Lower Division General Education Area A (A1- Oral Communications, A2- Written Communication and A3- Critical Thinking). For more information, study guides or to sign up, visit: www.csustan.edu/wpst.

Transfer Students Transfer Advising
UPPER-DIVISION WRITING PROFICIENCY
All students must demonstrate competency in writing skills as a requirement for graduation. Students must complete the Writing Proficiency Screening Test (WPST) with a passing score of 7 or better before enrolling in an upper-division Writing Proficiency (WP) course. The WP course must be passed with a minimum grade of C- or better and must be completed before enrolling in MGT 4900 Business Policy. Transfer students are advised to take the WPST the first semester they are enrolled at CSU Stanislaus in order to prevent any delays in graduation. The WP Course required for the Accounting concentration is ACC 3125. All other business administration concentrations are required to take BUS 3100. For more information, or to register for the WPST visit the following website: www.csustan.edu/wpst.
36
TRANSFER CREDIT FOR BUSINESS COURSES
Articulations for lower division courses taken at a California Community College and other California Universities are available at www.assist.org. The following local community colleges are articulated with CSU Stanislaus (SJDC, MJC, Merced, Columbia) resulting in an easy transition to classes and enrollment. If the college you are transferring from does not have an articulation on Assist.org, it is a good indication that you will need to receive approval for credit towards your business courses. Students that are transferring from colleges that are not articulated with CSU Stanislaus MUST meet with a business administration advisor (SSC or faculty) to receive credit for business administration courses towards your business degree. It is suggested to do this before or directly following your New Student Orientation appointment. Transcripts and course descriptions are needed to verify and receive credit toward your degree requirements, so please be prepared to provide them to your advisor.
SUBSTITUTION FOR DEPARTMENTAL DEGREE REQUIREMENTS FORMS
MGT 4900 BUSINESS POLICY
Substitution forms are ONLY used for departmental degree requirement verification and added to your student file. The Substitution forms are NOT forms of articulation from one school to another to show equivalency in courses, thus the completion of the requirements will be absent from your student profile and degree audit online, which may halt you at registration time.
The prerequisites include all business administration lower division prerequisites to the major, the WP course and the following core classes; FIN 3220, MGT 3310, MGT 3400, MKT 3410. The following courses can be taken concurrently: CIS 3700, OM 3010, OM 3020. There will be no exceptions to this rule and you will need to wait for your posted grade to enroll.
Substitution forms are completed during the meeting with an advisor and require departmental signatures for approval of business courses. These approved substitution forms are then submitted to the Office of Enrollment Services, MSR 120, to be added to your student file.
It is important to keep copies of all approved substitution forms for your records as proof of completion. During enrollment you may need to show proof of completion to professors (in the form of your substitution form) for classes that you have taken at another college that are not articulated and then request a permission number to add the class. Only transfer students from out of state or outside of our local area will need to do this.
MGT 4900 Business Policy is one of the very last classes you take within your major. All prerequisites for MGT 4900 Business Policy must be completed with a posted grade of C- or better BEFORE being allowed to enroll in MGT 4900.
