Compare three management credentials and their entry routes
Management and Leadership is a certificate, this Management major is a diploma, and the Management BBA is a four-year degree. Their course plans and entry routes differ. The certificate's unresolved Year 2 cost-row label also needs confirmation; it should not be read as a second year added to this diploma's budget.

Bring a standard-specification device and allow $1,000–$1,500 per full-time year for books and supplies. Review the duplicate-listed HR course and Management options before setting a reduced course load or planning later degree credit.
Confirm the Management declaration process, chosen options and international intake. A GPA of at least 2.3 may support a later BBA route; CAPM or CIM preparation does not automatically award either professional credential.

Choose distinct options for the twenty-course plan
The 60-credit plan contains 16 required three-credit courses, one business-core choice, one integrative experience and two Management choices. HRMT 320 appears both as required and in a generic option list; do not count it twice for six credits. Ask an advisor to confirm distinct choices. The integrative experience is ACWE 300 capstone or MNGT 395 Managing Strategically.
