Bachelor of Business Administration Program

• See p. 27 in the academic calendar for requirements which apply to all undergraduate degree programs.
• The Business Administration program offers an Honours B.B.A. degree and a joint-major Honours B.A. or B.Sc. degree. There is no General degree.
• The same course may not simultaneously satisfy the requirements of both programs in a joint major degree.
• To remain in the program, students must maintain a cumulative average of 70% of all courses completed. Students who are unable to maintain a 70% average should select from the following options. They may switch to a joint-major program with Business Administration, transfer to a B.A. or B.Sc. program in another discipline and make up any degree requirements for a major, or retake business courses (subject to Trent University’s policy for retaking courses) until they achieve the required average.
• Students entering the program are strongly encouraged to have completed a secondary school senior level mathematics course in good standing.
• Students transferring into the program from another university or community college will have their transcript assessed by the Office of the Registrar for course credit transfer. Students transferring into the program from another department or program should consult with the
Director of the program to review their course of study.
• Students who have completed 14.0 credits are encouraged to review their course selection to ensure that all program requirements are met.
