Provisional Admission
Provisional Admission is granted to those applicants who fail to meet the minimum 2.75 grade point average (GPA) for regular admission. To be accepted provisionally, the applicant must have an overall GPA of at least 2.5 on a 4.0 scale in their undergraduate (business and non-business) degree.

MBA students in provisional admission status are eligible to take 9 semester hours of approved MBA graduate-level courses and must earn a minimum grade of B in each of their approved three initial, consecutive MBA courses, in order to be eligible for consideration for regular admission.
A grade of less than B in any one of these courses will result in termination from the program. MBA courses or other graduate-level courses taken prior to being granted provisional status do not count toward fulfilling the requirement of three consecutive courses with a minimum grade of B in each course. Students not satisfying the conditional admission requirements will be dropped from the university for one calendar year but may apply for readmission.
Non-Degree Program
Applicants not desiring to seek an MBA, but who only want to take graduate MBA courses may be admitted in non-degree status for a maximum of nine semester hours of coursework. These courses will not count toward an MBA degree at ASU. The applicant for such non-degree courses must have either earned a baccalaureate degree or have senior undergraduate standing with at least an overall 3.0 institutional grade point verage (GPA) and approval of the Dean of the College of Business, Education, and Professional Studies. The non-degree status allows a student to develop proficiency in a particular area of interest or to work on certifications; it is not considered an admission status to the MBA Program.
A student admitted to the graduate program remains in the original academic status at the time of admission, until notified in writing by the Office of the Graduate Admissions of the approval of a change in status.
Transient Admission
MBA or Master-level students in good standing enrolled in a graduate-level degree program at another university may enroll in the ASU MBA program as a transient student. No more than nine hours of MBA coursework can be taken in transient status.
Planned Degree Program
Within the first semester of being admitted into regular admission status, the student is required to complete a planned degree program of study with the advice and approval of the MBA Director. Copies of this plan will be filed with the Graduate Admissions Office and the MBA Director's Office. An application for graduation must be completed at least one semester prior to the anticipated semester of graduation. The original copy of the approved degree program is to be submitted with the application for graduation. The graduation application is obtained from the Office of the Registrar.
Advisement
Upon admission to the program, each student will be advised by the MBA Director who, in consultation with the student, will plan the program of study and provide continued supervision and guidance.

The Dean of the Graduate School will issue an official warning. A grade of "D" in any MBA course is unacceptable, and the course must be repeated.
MBA Capstone Project
A critical component of the MBA curriculum constitutes the MBA Capstone Project. Students entering the program effective Fall 2015, are required to complete an MBA Capstone Project and present it before the faculty and/or area business professionals in their final graduating semester. The Capstone project should demonstrate the ability to integrate knowledge gained from the courses completed and apply it to a practical business-related problem.
Scholastic Termination
An MBA student's enrollment will be terminated from the program for any one of the following reasons:
- Failure to achieve a 3.0 cumulative GPA by the end of the next nine semester hours of enrollment immediately following scholastic warning;
- Failure to achieve a grade of B or better in each course for the first nine semester hours taken under provisional admission status;
- Earning an F in any graduate MBA course;
- Failure to earn a grade higher than D in the first re-attempt of a course in which a grade of D was made;
- Failure to complete and pass the MBA Capstone Project. (Students have two chances to pass the MBA Capstone before termination is affected.)
Credit Load

Time Limit for Completion of Degree
The maximum time allowed for the completion of the MBA degree is six (6) calendar years from admission into the program under either provisional or regular status.

Transfer and Other Credit
A minimum of 27 semester hours of the Master's degree program required courses must be earned in coursework offered by Albany State University. All graduate programs require a minimum of 30 semester hours. A maximum of six credit hours of graduate-level work may be transferred from another accredited institution to the MBA program for the purpose of partially fulfilling requirements for the MBA degree. All transfer and other credits are subject to the following requirements:
- For graduate level courses, only those in which a grade of B or better was earned and coursework offered for transfer credit must not have been used in fulfillment of another degree.
- At the time of application, a petition for transfer credit must be filed with the MBA director along with a copy of the course description for the institution's academic catalog.
- The graduate program required course must be less than 6- year-old by date of graduation.
