Capstone with another course? - GameSlinger - 09-02-2023
Quick clarification question regarding taking my BPS Business and Management Capstone course.
A few months ago when I was getting courses approved, I had my capstone course listed in Spring 2 semester for 2024. That particular course was denied with a note saying I still had other courses to complete before I could schedule my Capstone. As I am now just 2 EC courses left to complete before I take my Capstone, anyone know if I will be allowed to take my Capstone the same time I am taking my other final course?
If I can get Business Finance Bus-350 and my Capstone Bus-490 both completed in Fall 2 2023, I can then start my path towards my MBA in January. I just need to get my application submitted for the program by November.

I think EC allows students to take the Capstone with other courses, but I'm not positive about that. At least, I think Excelsior previously allowed students to complete Information Literacy, Cornerstone, and Capstone all at once.

Since you've done your AAS with Excelsior, you already have the Info Lit and the Cornerstone... If you really want to take an extra course along with the Capstone, you can as long as you have enough energy and time to complete everything. Go for it, get the degree completed by the timeline you mentioned...

I don't think they did. I think you always had to take Info Lit & the Cornerstone in 1 term, and then the Capstone in the next term.
