Plan B — related programs to consider
Certificate in administration (4122)
Official rule: candidates refused at the BAA are admitted to the certificate in administration if they are admissible to it. Holders of the certificate (or of the one in general accounting, 4627) with an average of at least 2.5 are then admissible to the BAA on the university basis. Note: a refusal at the BAA applies to all concentrations.
No experience basis for the BAA: adult candidates are directed to the specialized certificate in management (4657).
