About

The ABA offers courses for students who are high school graduates or possess a GED. The ABA requires 60 credit hours of instruction at the lower level (freshman and sophomore years).

The ABA places a strong emphasis on general education courses that will provide a foundation for entry to the Bachelor in Business Administration (BBA) program. General education courses are designed to broaden a student’s educational foundation. They include courses in such areas as communications, English, government, history, psychology, sociology, mathematics, and statistics.
