Capstone requirement change at TESU

[Muldoon]

I just had a phone appointment with Advising. She said that for the BSBA Capstone, within the 100 unit requirement, they really wanted to see completion of Eng 1 + 2 (for the writing skills) and the Business Core classes (for the foundational knowledge). I have no idea what other degree capstones look for, but it does sound like they are instituting this to make sure students are prepared for the work involved in the capstone. She didn't really say what would happen if you haven't passed all of the core classes, like if you were missing one or two but still had 100 units, but she emphasized that students should focus on completing those classes AND have the transcripts sent to the registrar for processing, before trying to enroll in the Capstone.

She also confirmed that the GPA requirement to enroll in the capstone includes prior coursework from other schools and is not limited to TESU classes only. Since I have graded CC classes transferred in, she told me I met that requirement. Unfortunately I had a lot of other questions to go over so I didn't think to clarify about non-graded work for people transferring in only P/NP units from other sources. Maybe someone else will be able to find that out.
