Admission and Enrollment Status

Probationary Admission

The student may be admitted either to the prerequisite, core, or a combination prerequisite/core program on probation. Probationary status will last a minimum of one term (at least six credit hours), and will be removed if the student attains a grade average of B (3.00) or better for the courses taken during the probationary term.

Regular Admission

Admission to the MBA prerequisite courses:

Students meeting admission requirements for the prerequisite portion of the program are notified of their status by mail. The letter granting the student admission to the MBA prerequisite courses states the specific prerequisites that will be required of the student.

Transfer Credit

Students who wish to transfer graduate course credit to Franciscan University of Steubenville’s MBA Program may be permitted to do so up to a total of nine credits. However, these transfer credits will be accepted only after the student has successfully completed a minimum of six credits with at least a B in each course in the Core Program. Following the completion of six credit hours of graduate courses at Franciscan University of Steubenville, the faculty will review the transfer of credits request and will notify the student of a decision.

Graduate-level elective courses taken at other regionally accredited institutions may be transferred for elective credit in the MBA Program, regardless of whether the elective is taught in the MBA or not.
