^Program-based Admission
Note 1: For Senior Year Entry or Direct Entry students with credit transfer in English and Mathematics and at least 15 transferred credits in total, the study pathway may be different. Please contact Academic Affairs and Advising Counselor (AAAC) for advice.
Note 2: Students will be required to register for the Common Core Courses, LANG2062, and LANG2061/LANG3060 (ECON/ECOF students should take ECON3700 to replace LANG2061/LANG3060). MGMT2130 may be pre-enrolled in Year 3 according to major program's study pathway.
Note 3: Majority of students select their majors at the end of the 3rd term. In the 4th term, students will be pre-enrolled in ACCT2200 and ECON2123 (if not taken in the 3rd term) and will follow their major study pathway for the 4th term.
Note 4: PBA students of joint-school programs will follow their own study pathways.
Note 5: ACCT2200, ISOM2700, MARK2120 and MGMT2110 are required for BBA programs only.
