What majors can I take in Business Online?

At partner institutions, students can earn an Associate Science (A.S.) in Business online.

At Metropolitan State University, you can now earn a B.S. degree in Business Administration, Human Resource Management, Management, or Marketing.

Can I really take all of my courses online?

The answer to this question is “yes,” in collaboration with the partner institutions. The community and technical colleges offer the A.A. and A.S. in business. Metropolitan State offers the B.S. degrees in business administration, marketing, and management.

Generally speaking, Business Online will accept courses in transfer as long as they were taken at another accredited college or university. To be sure, check with your academic advisor before taking these courses elsewhere.

Do I have to take all of my courses online?
If you are a Business Online student, we expect you to take the majority of your courses online rather than in the classroom. However, you may want to take an occasional course in the classroom if you live near a community college, Metropolitan State, or another university or college that offers a class that you want to take. You should always obtain prior approval from your academic advisor before taking a course at another university or college. Many students take online courses without ever intending to become a Business Online student.

Are there other majors in Business Online?

Currently we offer business administration, human resource management, management, and marketing majors in Business Online. We do not, however, have plans to offer the B.S. in accounting online.

How long do Business Online courses last?

Business Online adheres to the regular semester schedule of approximately 15 weeks. With most lower-division courses at three credits and upper-division courses at four credits, the 15-week semester provides plenty of time for students to delve into course content, participate actively in online discussions, and complete assignments.
