College of Business & Economics
Students are admitted to the combined major in e-Business and business administration on a competitive basis after first being admitted to Towson University. Admission to the university does not guarantee admission to the combined major. Each term, the college considers applications for admission to the major for the following term. To be admitted to the major, students must satisfy specific screening requirements and complete an application form. To be eligible for admission to the combined major, students must complete the seven lower-level required courses with a grade equivalent of 2.00 or higher and a minimum average GPA of 2.7 for ALL lower-level courses. They must also pass the CBE Computer Proficiency Exam with a score of 70 percent or higher.
