All Pre-Business (PBUS) students are required to participate in two approved
workshops per semester prior to registering for future semesters.
Participation in Pre-Business workshops is designed to encourage students to advance at an acceptable
pace to timely graduation, and support students in making informed decisions about a “best fit” major
according to their skills, abilities, and goals. Each pre-business student has been assigned to a workshop
cohort group based on her or his current progression in the PBUS program.
*** A customized list of workshop opportunities has been created for each cohort group that will best
facilitate their progression toward timely graduation. Please check your UNT email account for
messages from CoB-PALS@unt.edu to determine which set of workshops you should complete this
semester. ***
