Business Administration Degree Program Policies

  1. Any course duplication (repeating a course) will require prior approval of the Program Advisor. Normally, no more than 3 courses may be duplicated; and only one duplication of a single course will be allowed. The highest grade achieved in duplicated courses will be used for CGPA calculations, but the student's record will show all attempts.
  2. Students who have advanced to the 3rd year of the BBA program and subsequently want to enrol in Upper Division courses offered at other university-level institutions must consult the Program Advisor. Credits for these courses may be applied toward the BBA degree only if prior written approval of the Program Advisor has been granted.
  3. No more than 15 credits of Upper Division work completed at other university-level institutions may be counted toward completion of the Upper Division Requirements after being admitted to the BBA program.
  4. At least 60 credits of the course work counted toward the 120 credits required for the BBA degree must be completed at TRU.
  5. If completing a major and a minor, students can only share credit for one course. When completing a double major students may share credit between two courses only (must still have a minimum 120 credits).
