How do I apply for a dual degree?

Again, one must be an admitted student in each school/program. 

Prospective duals must make an attempt to fill out the Excel planning template (below) before submitting an application to Ross Academic Services.  This spreadsheet lays out each traditional term & lists the core Bus Ad courses. It also has spaces for LS&A courses for planning purposes.

Select the template that is appropriate to you:
BBA Dual LS&A Template for F06 Sophomore BBA Admits
BBA Dual LS&A Template for F07 & F08 BBA Admits

(Remember, these templates are guides for planning purposes only.  They do not replace the degree audit.  Replace your specific degree requirements, distribution courses, etc. with the sample classes shown.)

Please note that the decision to pursue the dual degree is a heavy commitment, and it is likely to add additional semesters to your program.
