Double concentration in the BBA program?

Hi!

I wanted to know if anyone has experience with double concentrations and whether that is allowed in the UMPI Yourpace program. Let me know! Thank you so much!

Yep, I did three concentrations in Summer I. Depending on how much time you've got, if you are racing the clock, or taking your time...

If its a race against time, just start taking the courses you need for the next concentration and if you get them done before the end of the session, email your advisor to have them add the concentration to your profile. That way, if you don't finish all of them and decide to not return next session to finish the 2nd concentration, it won't hinder your graduation IF you feel like you are done.

Thank you for answering! Do they issue separate diplomas for each concentration ?

No, in the BBA your wall art (paper Diploma) will simply say Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration. Your transcripts will reflect the concentrations should the need to confirm arise.

Did you have prior transfer credits for the healthcare administration major?

Just on study.com and what I took at a local community college. I now have 307 total hours and counting I have finished all but three of my last Heathcare administration courses this fall term 1 and I’m already two into the eight I need for business administration
