The Business Administration Transfer Program prepares students for transfer to four-year colleges and universities upon completion of their associate’s degree. Students who graduate from the Business Transfer Program with a GPA of 2.5 or higher are guaranteed admission to all Massachusetts state colleges and to the University of Massachusetts, including the Isenberg School of Management, under the MassTransfer program. For more information about the MassTransfer program please visit the QCC Transfer Office website (http://www.qcc.mass.edu/transfer/).

 

All students enrolled in the Business Administration -- Transfer program may select courses for a concentration that develops an area of specialty or interest. You are encouraged to select a concentration but not required to do so. Any business course will fulfill the degree requirement. It is important, however, to work with an advisor to select the courses that will be of most interest and benefit to you.

 Business Administration Transfer graduates can also take advantage of a special agreement that Quinsigamond Community College has with Nichols College called the “A to B” (associate to bachelor’s degree) program. The A to B Program Partnership combines the benefits of a Quinsigamond Community College associate’s degree with the advantages of a Nichols College bachelor’s degree. There are specific courses required for the A to B program which are ‘electives’ in the Business Transfer program. Students should meet with their academic advisors to ensure that they are taking the appropriate electives. After being accepted, students begin their third year of study at QCC.  Third-year courses are taught by QCC faculty at QCC's per credit cost. The final year of study is charged at the rate of Nichols College’s P per credit cost. The A to B program’s flexibility is a significant advantage to students as fourth-year coursework, taught by Nichols faculty, can be
taken on the QCC campus, on Nichols’ campuses in Dudley, Auburn, and Worcester or through Nichols’ online program.

 CORI/SORI:
A Criminal Offenders Record Information (CORI) and Sexual Offenders Record Information (SORI) may be required of all students enrolled in BSS 299.  Finger printing and drug testing may be required.
