Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) Major in Information Systems (Business Analytics Concentration)
Minimum required: 120 semester credit hours
Admission Requirements
Admission to the College is competitive, and a student must be admitted to the College to pursue a B.B.A. degree. Consideration for admission to McCoy College undergraduate programs is based on specific admission criteria.
To be considered for admission to McCoy College, students should list a business major as their first-choice major (accounting, computer information systems, economics, finance, management, or marketing) and apply to Texas State by the stated deadlines on the Undergraduate Admissions website. Students who are admitted to the University but denied admission to McCoy College will be considered for admission to their second choice major or if one is not listed, students will be declared Pre-Business major.
Admission Process for Prospective Texas State Students
Students with fewer than 30 semester credit hours will be automatically admitted to the McCoy College if they receive
assured admission
to Texas State and select a first-choice major in the McCoy College of Business Administration. Students who are admitted to the University but denied admission to McCoy College will be considered for admission to their second choice major or as an exploratory professional major.
Freshman
: Students admitted to Texas State as a Freshman will be automatically admitted to McCoy College if they meet Assured Admission requirements and select a business major as their first-choice major.
Transfer
: Students admitted to Texas State as a Transfer will be automatically admitted to McCoy College if they meet Program Entry requirements based on total semester credit hours earned and select a business major as their first-choice major.
Admission Process for Current Texas State Students
For current Texas State students, an internal application is available online on the CenturyLink Academic Advising Center website. Students attending Texas State who are currently on academic probation are not eligible for admission to McCoy College.
General Requirements
The program can be completed at the San Marcos Campus (M), Dallas College Partnership (DCP), Mexico Queretaro Campus (MXQ), and Round Rock Campus (RRC).
For the B.B.A. degree, any McCoy College student whose Texas State GPA drops below 2.0 is placed on restricted status by McCoy College. Students on restricted status must increase their Texas State GPA to at least 2.0 in the subsequent semester (summer included) or their admission to McCoy College will be voided. Students are required to meet with a representative of the McCoy College Academic Advising Center to remove the restricted status hold; otherwise, the hold will prevent registration or schedule changes. A student whose admission is voided may regain admission to McCoy College by going through the internal application process available on the CenturyLink Academic Advising Center website. Students with a Texas State GPA below a 2.0 are also subject to the University academic probation and suspension policies.
All students seeking the B.B.A. must complete the following general education core curriculum courses as required by McCoy College. The general education core curriculum courses are listed in the degree plan below along with the statewide component code number. See the
General Education Core Curriculum
section of this catalog for other information about the general education core curriculum.
To provide a common body of knowledge in business, all students seeking the B.B.A. must complete the following common core of business courses or their equivalents as required by McCoy College:

A combination of courses in the major program area specified by the appropriate academic department and restricted upper-division business electives to complement the major are also required for the B.B.A.
Free electives to achieve a minimum total of 120 semester hours are also required. To ensure compliance with the course requirements for a B.B.A. degree, students should follow the general sequence of courses specified for the curriculum in this section of the catalog.
First time in college students who went to a private, out-of-state, or home school institution will be required to demonstrate foreign language proficiency. This can be demonstrated by the successful completion of two years of the same foreign language in high school or two semesters of the same foreign language in college. However, first time in college students who went to a public high school in Texas (and therefore earned a Foundation or higher diploma) will automatically be considered as having satisfied the foreign language proficiency requirement. In addition, transfer students are not required to satisfy foreign language proficiency through high school or college-level coursework.
Nine hours of designated “writing intensive” (WI) courses must be completed at Texas State to satisfy degree requirements.
For transfer students, 24 semester credit hours in the business core curriculum (or their equivalents) may be transferred from a Texas public institution of higher education for the Business Administration and Management Field of Study and be applied to the B.B.A. major in Computer Information Systems at Texas State University. More information about the
Field of Study
is available in the Academic Policies section of this catalog. If transferring additional business courses, please contact the McCoy College of Business CenturyLink Academic Advising Center for assistance. The transferable Texas Common Course Number (TCCN) is listed below the Texas State University course number in the following course list. Students who complete MATH 1319 (TCCN: MATH 1324) in the FOS will receive 3 semester credit hours towards free electives.
