Prospective Students


Admissions http://www.mscd.edu/admissions/
Students may declare a business major at any time by contacting the dean's office or a department faculty advisor and completing the "Major Declaration Form." Students are encouraged to declare as early as possible to ensure accurate advising on business program requirements. When a degree-seeking student has earned a total of at least 60 semester credit hours, that student must declare a major before being permitted to enroll in an upper-division course offered by a School of Business program or department.

Prior to enrolling in an upper-division business course, declared business majors must have:

  • a cumulative GPA of at least 2.00;
  • completed all Level I and II General Studies requirements for business;
  • completed all lower-division courses in the business core; and
  • completed at least 60 credit hours overall (junior standing).

Business majors will be placed on academic warning if their GPA falls below 2.0. If the GPA remains below 2.0 after one semester on probation, students will be dropped as business majors.

The Assessment and Testing Center http://www.mscd.edu/~testing/
The Assessment and Testing Center at MSCD administers assessment exams in three areas: Writing, Mathematics, and Reading. Students must take all three exams in order to fulfill the minimum requirements for entrance to college level courses, or must be able to provide adequate ACT Scores. Please note that the scores from these exams are used to assist advisors and students in selecting appropriate course work.

The Writing Center http://www.mscd.edu/~writectr/
A service available to all Metro students who want to improve their writing. The mission of the MSCD Writing Center is an instructional one. Rather than providing editing and proof reading service, the tutors help students to become more independent, more confident, more competent writers. That work is accomplished best when students come to the center on a regular basis for on-going work with the same tutor who is then able to diagnose particular students' problems and to help them deal with those concerns.

Students come to the center as the result of informal referrals or advice from the faculty, staff, or peers; after hearing about the Writing Center in a class orientation session; through formal written referrals by instructors or other staff; and through finding us on their own to seek help that they perceive they need. The Center maintains thorough computer records about all clients and each of their visits.
