Students must meet the following application eligibility requirements to be considered eligible to apply. Meeting these minimum requirements does not guarantee admission to the BBA Marketing and International Business co-major.

Eligible for current enrollment at UGA: Applicants must be eligible for enrollment at the University of Georgia in the semester in which they apply to a Terry major. Minimum GPAs: Applicants must be in "good academic standing" at UGA, meaning they must have a 2.0 or higher UGA GPA, or no UGA GPA for a new transfer student. Applicants must also have a 2.6 or higher earned overall GPA (transfer and UGA coursework combined).

MATH 1113: Applicants must have successfully completed or have earned an exemption for MATH 1113 or higher-level MATH course. A passing grade or exemption must be posted to your UGA academic record by the application deadline. ACCT 2101: Applicants must have successfully completed ACCT 2101 or equivalent. A passing grade or exemption must be posted to your UGA academic record by the application deadline. BUSN 3000 (formerly MSIT 3000): Applicants must have successfully completed or be currently enrolled in BUSN 3000 or equivalent during the semester in which they are applying to their first Terry major.

Other Curriculum Requirements: Applicants need to have completed or be in the process of completing the BBA General Education Core Curriculum Areas I-VI, OR Applicants need to have completed or be in the process of completing the BBA General Education Core Curriculum Area VI and have a minimum of 58 credit hours completed or in progress (not including P.E.).

DegreeWorks is the official indicator to determine eligibility based on credit hours. To verify whether you meet this requirement, go to DegreeWorks. If you are applying during the fall semester, then look at the line that says “120 Minimum Credits Required.” That line should say that you have 58 hours (or more). If you are applying during the spring semester and are registered to take courses during the following summer semester, you will need to exclude and subtract those summer hours from the number reported on the “120 Minimum Credits Required” line. If you are uncertain whether you meet this requirement, please consult with your academic advisor. Note: In-progress coursework must be taken in the same semester in which students apply to their first Terry major (e.g., pre-registered summer coursework will not satisfy eligibility requirements for spring admissions).

Foreign Language Requirement: To apply for the International Business co-major, the applicant must either be enrolled in or have already completed the third level (or higher) of the same language – e.g., SPAN 2001 (having already completed or exempted SPAN 1001 and SPAN 1002). A minimum grade of B is required in each language course. Note: Students natively fluent in a language other than English may waive this requirement by completing a foreign language proficiency waiver. Waiver of this requirement does not waive the required credit hours toward graduation. IMPORTANT: If any of the above referenced coursework has not been posted to your UGA transcript, proof of coursework must be attached to the BBA application prior to the application deadline. Applicants who do not provide proof of coursework by the deadline will become ineligible.

There is no guarantee of acceptance to any major in the Terry College of Business. Applicants are evaluated on the High-Demand Major Selection Criteria listed below. Acceptance in the major is contingent on satisfactory completion of in-progress work. Students who withdraw from any of the above required courses are at risk of having their major admission rescinded.

Foreign Language Requirement – In order to apply for the International Business co-major, the applicant must either be enrolled in or have completed the third (or higher) level of the same language; e.g., SPAN 2001 (has completed or exempted SPAN 1001 and SPAN 1002). Grades in Foreign Language – A minimum of “B” (3.0) is required in the two most recently completed non-English language courses.

Grades in Accounting courses – Final course grades in (ACCT 2101 or equivalent) and (ACCT 2102 or equivalent). Applicants currently enrolled in ACCT 2102 will be evaluated based on the grade in ACCT 2101. Grades in Economics courses – Final course grades in (ECON 2105 or equivalent) and/or (ECON 2106 or equivalent) are considered. Applicants currently enrolled in one of these courses will be evaluated based on the grade in the completed course. Grades in Mathematics courses – Final course grades in (MATH 1113 or equivalent), MATH 2200, (MATH 2250 or equivalent) and MATH 2260 are considered.

Standardized Testing – Students are required to submit ACT or SAT scores and sub-scores to the University prior to being considered for admission to a major in the Terry College. In addition to required ACT/SAT scores, students may also supplement their application by submitting a score from the ETS Proficiency Profile if they believe their ACT/SAT scores do not represent their current performance level. The ETS Proficiency Profile is a standardized, multiple-choice assessment of the academic skills – reading, writing, critical thinking, and mathematics. Contact University Testing Services to schedule an appointment. The ETS may only be taken a maximum of three times total in your career as a UGA student, and only the highest score will be considered in a student’s application.

Statement of Purpose – A brief essay (300-400 words) in which the applicant describes his/her interest in the major and his/her future goals. The statement should also describe the interests/goals with respect to international business and the level of foreign language satisfied. If the applicant is proficient in a language without college credit, include this information in the statement. Grades in prefix courses – Grades in courses previously completed in the prefix of the major to which the applicant is applying can be considered, but are not required, for admission to the major. Grades in the College’s Foundation First courses (FINA 3000, MARK 3000, MGMT 3000), as well as BUSN 3000, can be considered for all majors if completed. Consideration of the Foundation First courses mainly applies to students seeking to change or add Terry majors. It is beneficial to take these Foundation First courses at UGA.

Terry Direct – UGA students who are in good standing with the Honors Program and apply to the Terry College of Business will be guaranteed their first choice of a first (primary) major within the Terry College. This guarantee does not apply to second, double, or co-majors. These requirements and criteria are subject to change in future academic calendar years.

A baccalaureate degree program must require at least 21 semester hours of upper division courses in the major field and at least 39 semester hours of upper division work overall.

The purpose of the Marketing major at UGA is to provide students with a basic understanding of marketing and its vital role in society. The Marketing curriculum is future-oriented and emphasizes the skills needed for successful and responsible careers in advertising, promotion, sales and sales management, product management, marketing research and many other related areas. The curriculum is designed to develop the broad background of knowledge required for continuing professional growth in a changing world that is constantly demanding better trained people for executive positions. Of the more than 850 undergraduate Marketing majors at UGA, approximately half of them complete program requirements for the BBA in Marketing each year. Many UGA marketing graduates move directly into lucrative sales or management training programs; others go on to graduate programs, such as the Master of Marketing Research (MMR), to prepare for academic or professional careers.
