The Associate of Arts in Business is based on the Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathway in Business. It is recommended for students planning to start at Tri-C and transfer to a four year institution to major in one of the following areas:
Accounting, Agribusiness, Business/Business Administration, Business Analytics, Business Economics, Entrepreneurship, Finance,Hospitality Management, Human Resources, Logistics, Management, Marketing, Operations Management, Organizational Leadership, Real Estate, Risk Management, Sales Management, Sports Management, and Supply Chain Management
It is important to note that some bachelor-degree granting business programs may be competitive and admission into the program is not guaranteed. Students should check with individual institutions for their program admission requirements. In addition, some bachelor-degree granting institutions require additional general education courses outside of the Ohio Transfer Module and students may be required to take these courses in their junior or senior year. Students will still be able to follow this pathway and complete their bachelor’s degree in approximately 60 additional credit hours.
