This system is used to manage student requests for additional courses to be considered for credit for the GBM.

For a course to be considered as an elective, it must meet the following criteria:

1. Taken for a grade (as opposed to C/NC).
2. Conveys foundational business knowledge.
3. Employs professional skills (e.g., critical thinking, teamwork, etc.).
4. Applied learning experience. 

You will need to submit a syllabus for the specific course before a final decision can be made. Approval is up to the discretion of the Director of the General Business Minor director. All decisions will be final.
