The Fox School of Business and Management

Intra-University Transfer

IUT Workshop

• Current Temple students interested in transferring to the Fox School of Business must attend an IUT workshop. Reservations are required.
• You will receive an email confirmation of your reservation. Prompt arrival is expected. If you arrive more than 5 minutes late, you will not be admitted to the workshop and will need to reschedule.
• At the workshop, you will:
  - receive an evaluation of how your credits earned to date will apply toward a business degree.
  - learn about the business degree requirements, majors, minors and professional development.
  - be able to begin your transfer to business.
• You are expected to complete preliminary research on Fox degree programs prior to the workshop.
• Important: IUT's are effective for the following semester.

 

Before you attend a workshop:

• Know why you are considering a change in major - what are your goals, your strengths, your weaknesses? There are many avenues to reach most goals and business may be only one avenue. You need to know your goals to find the best program fit for you! Please see the steps listed below to help you make your decision.
• The BBA program is very quantitative! If you don’t like or do well in math, this is not the program for you! Read our program requirements in the Fox School of Business and Management section of the Undergraduate Bulletin that corresponds to the date you plan to attend the workshop and declare the new major.
• You must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 to transfer into the Fox School.
• Review our suggested sequence to take some classes that would work for our program.
• Math 1022 (C074) replaces Statistics 1001 (C011); Math 75, 1031 (C077), or 1041 (C085) replaces Statistics 1102 (C012); Math 1013 (C067), Psychology 1167 (C067), Sociology 1167 (C067), or 3201 (0201) will replace Statistics 2101. There is no substitution for Statistics 2103 if required. Minimum grades of C- are required.

 

 

Step One: Self Assessment

How can you decide your goals if you cannot identify your strengths, weaknesses, and values? Use University resources designed to help with this step:

• Fox CSPD
• University Career Development Services

Step Two: Research Potential Industries/Employers of Interest

• Attend Student Professional Organization (SPO) meetings to meet other students with similar interests, faculty with industry knowledge, and professionals with experience in an industry of interest.
• Use the strategies found on the CSPD site:
• Explore “What Can You Do With this Major?” on the Career Development web site:

Step Three: Identify Skills

Identify the skills employers are seeking – and choose your major/minor/certificate to enhance your skills, making YOU the most attractive job candidate.

• Explore the Fox School majors in your Undergraduate Bulletin that corresponds with your matriculation date – use the bulletin archives if you started before the current year. (Your bulletin/catalog year is listed on your DARS document in OWLnet.)
• Explore the Fox School minors and certificates listed below.

Step Four: Develop plan of study

• Meet with your academic advisor to see how the credits required for the major(s), minor(s), and/or certificates will fit into your academic program.
• Develop your academic plan of study to complete all of your program requirements by your expected graduation date. (Coming soon: "Four Year Academic Plan Tutorial")
