Master of Business Administration
2008-2010 Program Changes
The FSU College of Business MBA program has reorganized its course offerings,
with full implementation beginning Fall 2008.
The program change effects only the “Essentials” requirements
in the 2008-2010 Graduate catalog and replaces the six three-credit “Essentials”
courses with ten one-credit “Essentials” courses designated
by the BUAD discipline code. For students admitted into the Master of
Business Administration program under the 2008-2010 FSU Graduate Catalog,
the MBA Essentials consists of ten courses carrying one
credit hour each (10 hours) that can be waived if the applicant has taken
equivalent courses as an undergraduate or has credit for similar courses
in another graduate program. The second section, Required MBA
Core, consists of 12 courses of three credit hours each (36 hours).
The program has a number of prerequisites in the required core. The Required
MBA Core courses have not been affected by the change.
Current MBA Students
In order to receive an MBA degree from Frostburg State University, you
must meet the graduation requirements of the catalog year of your acceptance
into the program. As a result of a major revision to the MBA program,
it may be beneficial to a number of students to substitute the requirements
listed in the new 2008-2010 Graduate catalog for those which appear in
the catalog of your entry year. In order to substitute the new set of
graduation requirements, you must apply in writing to the Director of
Graduate Services and request a formal transfer to the new 2008-2010 Graduate
catalog. Once this request is approved, it is irrevocable. If you choose
not to transfer to the new catalog and have outstanding Essential requirements
that must be met based on your current catalog requirements, you must
request course substitutions for any outstanding Essential coursework
that you have been required to take in order to meet the graduation requirements
of your current catalog. You must submit your request in writing for course
substitutions to the Office of Graduate Services. This request will be
forwarded to your Program Coordinator for formal approval and you will
be notified by mail of the decision.
