Requirements

Admission Requirements: The Associate Degree in Business Administration page does not publish its own academic-prerequisite section and instead directs applicants to the university's general Admission Requirements page. That page sets out no separate academic prerequisites for this associate-level program but does specify English-language proficiency for applicants from non-English-speaking countries: a minimum TOEFL iBT score of 88 (or TOEFL CBT 213), IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6, Duolingo English Test 115, or CAEL 70 with no part below 60. Exemptions apply to applicants who hold a credential from an English-language institution, have studied or worked in an English-language environment for five years or more, have scored highly on another standardized English test, have completed a recognized English-language program, or pass an oral interview with the university. The program page itself states only that applicants should apply at least four weeks before their chosen start date; it lists no portfolio, interview, work-experience, or background-check requirement.
