Frequently Asked Questions

There are four key things to know about your elective requirements:

1. 21 elective credits must be selected from courses outside of the College of Business.  These may be satisfied with AP credits, transfer credits and/or courses taken at Notre Dame. 
2. The remaining elective credits required to reach an overall total of 128 credits are unrestricted in that they may be applied to business or non-business classes.  To be clear, there is no requirement to take additional electives in business.
3. A maximum of three credit hours of activity or experiential learning non-business courses can be applied as elective credit.  A listing of these courses is posted here.
4. The GPS that tracks your courses and requirements is a wonderful tool, but there are occasionally glitches that cause issues in the elective section.  If you have any concerns about the way the GPS is counting your courses, please see an advisor.
