Business Administration, BBA (Online)

Program Description

The BBA is for students who wish to complete their bachelor's degree in business and who have previously earned 45 transferable academic credits. This program offers a fully online curriculum covering the common professional core of business, including courses in accounting, economics, technology, management, and marketing. 

All MNU students must complete general education courses however, completing an Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree or the Associate of Science (A.S.) degree at JCCC will satisfy all the general education requirements at MNU, except the Faith Integration requirement. JCCC students transferring to MNU without completing the A.A. or A.S. will have transfer courses evaluated on a course-by-course basis. Therefore, it is recommended that students complete either the AA or the AS before transferring. The JCCC A.A. degree and the JCCC A.S. degree each require completion of 60 credit hours, the maximum number of hours from a community college that will be applied toward a bachelor’s degree at most four-year schools. Meeting with a JCCC counselor is strongly recommended for selection of appropriate courses. 

The Johnson County Partner Program (JCPP) allows students the opportunity to take one class per semester at MNU, while pursuing an Associate degree at JCCC. Visit JCPP for the exclusive Partner Program rate and for more information.
