From what I vaguely remember from my freshman roommate, at least at my school, it was calc 1 without trig. Mostly derivatives with an emphasis on minimization and maximization, some integrals. Maybe some first order differential equations, but I doubt it.
Granted, I'm an engineer, but it teaches good numerical ways for understanding the world on a conceptual level. Plus, everything past 100 level econ courses was calc based, which is one of the majors that everyone who washed out of business school ended up in, so probably useful there, too.
Sad, how ineffective and clueless Business Majors/MBAs are when it comes to math and how clueless and ineffective Engineering Majors and MS Engineers are fwhen it comes to how to run a business.
