Is there any preparatory coursework that is required before entrance?
No, however, there are three preperatory requirements that students must meet within a specific timeframe upon admission to the program: Computer Skills, Business Calculus and Business Communications. The computer skills requirement generally consists of proficiency in word processing, spreadsheets, the Internet and email. The math requirement includes Business Calculus and can be waived if successfully completed with a grade of B (3.0) or above. Computer Skills and Business Calculus, if not waived upon admission, must be completed within the first year of the program. Business Communications can be satisfied by earning in the 25 percentile or higher on the verbal and writing section of the GMAT. Students who do not meet this minimum will be required to complete the Albers Graduate Business Communications class in their first quarter of the program.
