  3. BBA vs. BSBA: What is the Difference?
  4. Which courses are typical for a first-semester freshman in Business? A typical full-time academic schedule for a new Business School freshman would include 5 courses (15-17 credits): (If you are a Foote Fellow or if you intend to follow a pre-health track, and/or if you have college credits for English Composition and Calculus, your schedule will be slightly different.)
  5. What do I do about AP/IB/CLEP Exams or Dual Enrollment/Transfer Courses? AP/IB (HL) or CLEP exams: If you do not know the results of AP/IB (HL) and CLEP exams at this time, you will need to make a judgment about the potential for receiving credits. You may check the AP/IB (HL) score tables online in order to determine the exam scores necessary for the awarding of University of Miami credit for specific courses. Dual Enrollment/Transfer credits: If you took a course for college credit, you must submit official transcripts to the UM Office of Admission from the issuing College or University.   A listing on the high school transcript is not sufficient to award college credit.  A minimum grade of "C" is required for consideration of credit in all dual enrollment and transfer courses.
  6. Evaluation of AP/IB (HL) Scores for UM Credits AP/IB (HL) scores: You must request that your scores be sent directly to the UM Office of Admission from the College Board or from your regional IB office. CLEP scores: You must submit an Official Test Result Report to the UM Office of Admission. DEADLINE: No credit will be awarded for AP/IB courses after December 15, 2014.
  7. Dual Enrollment and Transfer Credits Dual Enrollment/Transfer credits: If you took a course for college credit, you must submit official transcripts to the UM Office of Admission from the issuing College or University.   A listing on the high school transcript is not sufficient to award college credit.  A minimum grade of "C" is required for consideration of credit in all dual enrollment and transfer courses. DEADLINE: All grades earned in these courses are part of your permanent recordand should be submitted to UM no later than December 15, 2014.
  8. General Education Areas of Knowledge: What is a Cognate? The "Areas of Knowledge" aspect of the university's general education requirements is based on the notion of cognates.  A cognate is a group of at least three related courses for at least 9 credits. The courses in a cognate are related in a topical, thematic, interdisciplinary, sequential, or other such fashion, so that completion of a cognate provides coherent depth of knowledge in the area. Students must take three cognates: Arts & Humanities (A&H) People & Society (P&S) Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) As a first semester freshman, we recommend you choose a course in the “Arts and Humanities cognate.” To read more about cognates, go to www.miami.edu/cognates.
  9. Can I meet with or speak to an advisor to discuss my course selection? In order to properly enroll in courses, you must fill out the New School of Business Freshman Online Course Selection Form. Once the form is submitted, a School of Business Academic Advisor will: Review your course selection Respond with your first semester courses Release your “Academic Advising Hold” You will then be able to enroll for your first semester courses!
