The Associate of Arts degree (A.A.) at Highland CC is a general transfer degree and partners well with the first two years of most bachelor degree programs. Students pursuing the A.A. may select courses that satisfy both the A.A. degree requirements and lower division requirements for a bachelor’s degree at four-year institutions. The 33 hours of electives within the A.A. allows students to complete additional general education and lower division courses required for specific majors. The A.A. degree requires completion of 64 credit hours, the maximum number of hours from a community college that will be applied toward a bachelor’s degree at most four-year schools. Meeting with a Highland CC counselor is strongly recommended for selection of appropriate courses.
The College of Business Administration offers majors in accounting, finance (options in financial management, financial controllership, or financial services), entrepreneurship, management information systems, management (emphasis in human resources, operations and general/entrepreneurship) and marketing. Total hours to earn a B.S. degree in Business Administration is 126 credit hours.
Students entering college for the first time and eligible for admission to K-State must enroll in the business administration pre-professions program (BAPP). Students must achieve a 2.5 K-State GPA by the time they complete 30 credit hours to remain in good standing. Students with previous academic work
(either at K-State or elsewhere) requesting transfer to the College of Business Administration must have a
2.5 or higher grade point average and enroll in the BAPP curriculum. Transfer students, entering with 45 or more credit hours, must achieve a K-State GPA of 2.5 or higher on the first 15 or more hours of K-State course work to be able to continue in the College of Business Administration.
Admission to a degree plan (major) in accounting, entrepreneurship, finance, management, management information systems, or marketing is necessary for graduation. Applicants for admission to one of the degree plans, other than accounting will be accepted upon completion of a minimum of 45 credit hours with a K-State grade point average of 2.5 or above. For accounting the grade point average for admission to the degree plan is 3.0 K-State GPA.
Transfer students must meet the above requirements and complete at least 12 graded hours at K-State before they can be admitted into a degree plan.
All transfer coursework approved by the K-State Admissions Office, with a grade of C or better, will be reviewed by the CBA Office of Student Services for equivalency within the business curriculum and is subject to final approval. (Transfer coursework carrying a grade of D will not be accepted toward a student’s business degree requirements.)
Each student must successfully complete credit-bearing courses/experiences to cover all of the K-State 8 areas. A minimum of four different course prefixes (e.g. AGEC, MATH, FSHS) must be represented in the fulfillment of the K-
State 8 requirements. Students who began at K-State before Summer 2011, may choose to move to the K-State 8 program or complete their degrees with University General Education (UGE) requirements. For more information:
