  Program Characteristics

  Several important aspects of the Graduate Certificate in Business Turnaround Management (BTM) program should be noted. These include policies regarding grade point averages, class scheduling, and advising.

  Cumulative Grade Point Average

  Students in the Graduate Certificate in BTM program are required to achieve and maintain a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or better (on a 4.0 scale). A 3.0 cumulative GPA is required for final completion of the program requirements.

  Academic Standing

  While an individual may be admitted into the Graduate Certificate in BTM program on a regular-acceptance basis, it is possible that the individual's eventual cumulative GPA may fall below a 3.0 in any particular term. When this situation occurs, the student automatically is placed on "Academic Probation". This status dictates that the student's cumulative GPA must continue to improve in each consecutive term thereafter until the cumulative GPA reaches 3.0 and is then sustained at that level or higher. If, after being placed on Academic Probation, the student's cumulative GPA does not improve in each subsequent term, the student will be academically dismissed.

  Class Scheduling

  BTM classes are scheduled online. Terms are 15 weeks in length. Each summer session is seven weeks in length. Summer I commences in early May. Summer II begins in late June.

  Full-Time and Part-Time Student Status

  An individual may undertake the Graduate Certificate in BTM program on a part-time basis. Full-time student status usually involves a nine or above credit-hour course load in Terms I and II. Part-time student status usually entails a 1-8 credit hour load in Terms I and II.

  Residence and Time Requirements

  Students who have not completed their required graduate certificate program within two years may be subject to re-evaluation and additional coursework. Students not enrolled for more than four consecutive terms will be required to re-apply for admission.

  International Students

  International students should consult with the International Services Office.

  Advising

  The director of Graduate Business Programs serves as general academic advisor for all students entering the Graduate Certificate in BTM program. When appropriate, specific advising matters may be referred to the advisor in a particular academic discipline.

  Student Responsibilities

  Students in the College of Business Administration are responsible and accountable for knowledge of the requirements and procedures set forth by the College and University. Administrators, advisors, and faculty are available to assist students by explaining the various requirements and procedures for each program. However, the ultimate responsibility for compliance rests with the student.

  MBA with Certificate

  MBA students may focus in BTM by using their three MBA electives to take MBA 5640 or BTM 5000 plus two (2) BTM courses from the BTM curriculum. In order to receive the Graduate Certificate in Business Turnaround Management, two (2) additional BTM elective courses are required beyond the MBA degree requirements, totaling five (5) courses. For details, a student should consult with the director of Graduate Business Programs.
