EC Business Degree Questions

[PatsGirl1]

Yep, that is about right. The specific concentration classes aren't really extra though (at least I don't think they increase the total over 121 credits) it just is that your "business electives" end up being all in that field and are not able to be tested out of for the most part. I did the same thing with Marketing but decided to go the GB route mostly becuase I didn't want to have to pay for all the classes and would rather test out.

For the Accounting concentration (and I believe some of the other concentrations, as well) it requires 15 credits in the concentration as opposed to the 12 credits of GB and some of the other concentrations, so you end up with 124 credits for the degree. The Business Core (including Ethics and Org. beh.) ends up being 33 credits, and then you have either 12 or 15 for a concentration to bring the total to 45-48.
I was in the General Business program and then realized that the difference between the GB and an Accounting concentration was about $400 (for me) and having a specific concentration was worth that $. It'll take longer (IS classes take a bit longer than testing out), but it was worth it to me.

I think it mostly depends on your goals.
