How to transfer from another major on campus

1. Students transferring to Business from another major on campus should note the Spring 2024 'transfer blackout period' (when students are not allowed to transfer into the College of Business) starting at 11:59 PM, Friday, March 1st and ending at 7:00 AM, Wednesday, April 10th.     
2. Find a Major offered in the Harbert College of Business
3. Learn about different career opportunities associated with business degrees. If you have questions about internship and/or career opportunities, visit the Office of Professional and Career Development for more information.
4. Know the course requirements for your major.  If you have less than 30 hours of earned credit prior to transferring into the Harbert College, you will enter as a ‘Pre-Business’ major and will follow the Pre-Business Curriculum. If you have 30 or more hours of earned credit before transferring into the Harbert College, you may 1) enter as 'Pre-Business' major or 2) enter directly into one of our 4-year major options.  If you enter directly into a major , you will follow the curriculum model for that major.
5. With the exception of students transferring from Engineering, click below to initiate your major change when you're ready.  Students transferring from Engineering MUST meet with their Engineering advisor BEFORE clicking on the major change link!

Course Transfer Rules

Review the following transfer rules to determine if coursework you have already taken will satisfy Harbert College requirements:

• MATH 1610 or 1617 will satisfy the Harbert College MATH 1680 requirement.
• Any 3-hour STAT course will satisfy the Harbert College BUAL 2600 requirement.  However, there are no course substitutions for BUAL 2650. 
• Per university policy, students cannot receive credit for more than 4 hours of PHED courses.
• Students pursuing a major in the Harbert College will receive not receive credit for ACCT 2810, MNGT 3810, MKTG 3810, and FINC 3810.  These courses are designed for non-business majors only. 

Plan Your Courses

You can begin planning your courses before officially being accepted into the Harbert College of Business. You should plan according to (1) notes on the printed curriculum model, and (2) Pre-requisites and course descriptions listed in the AU Bulletin. Students can determine which courses they need to take for the upcoming semester by reviewing the curriculum model for their intended major and reading course pre-requisite information for the coursework that has not been completed. Students can also access a Degree Works audit to perform a 'What If' function.

Additional Information prior to transferring

Students are highly encouraged to thoroughly read the Internal Transfer Guide and/or perform a ‘What If’ audit in Degree Works to view the course requirements they have already completed and view the remaining course requirements for their intended Business major. 

If you have not yet transferred into the Harbert College of Business, you cannot register for Business course work via AU Access. Non-business students are required to wait until the end of the registration period before requesting seating in business courses. Requests can be made in the appropriate departmental office(s) in Lowder Hall. Current and prospective Harbert College of Business majors are required to use the AU Bulletin to find course descriptions and course pre-requisites. Click on ‘Courses of Instruction.’ The abbreviation "Pr." stands for pre-requisite.

Students who are undecided about transferring into Business can request seating in a small-group information session at https://aub.ie/explorebusiness.  These sessions fill very quickly, but are designed to provide general information about Business expectations and provide students with research tools to help them determine if Business is an appropriate major for them.
