Post-Diploma Bachelor of Management (25-course)
Students who are admitted to the Post-Diploma Bachelor of Management (25-course) program cannot receive credit for courses at the University of Lethbridge for which they have equivalent credit in their diplomas. Substitute courses will be assigned by the Dhillon School of Business to replace any courses for which they have equivalent credit. Substitute courses must be approved by the Dhillon School of Business. Diploma courses that satisfy Post-Diploma Bachelor of Management (25-course) course requirements must meet the minimum grade requirement as outlined in Post-Diploma General Requirements (25-course). Courses may also have a minimum grade requirement for prerequisite purposes. This is outlined in the course prerequisites (see Course Catalogue). Students should consult with an academic advisor and see www.ulethbridge.ca/ross/post-diploma for information on specific diplomas.
The Post-Diploma (25-course) program requirements are specified for the General Management major only. After admission, students may choose to complete a different Management major in the Post-Diploma (25-course) program. If students choose a different Management major, they may be required to extend their programs beyond 25 courses (see Post-Diploma Bachelor of Management Majors, for all Management major requirements).
1.Successful completion of at least 25 courses (75.0 credit hours) and a GPA that meets Graduation Requirements (see Graduation). In some cases, where a diploma does not provide the appropriate background for the major chosen, students will be assigned additional courses.
2.A minimum grade of 'C-' is required in all Dhillon School of Business courses and courses cross-listed with Dhillon School of Business courses; Economics 1010; Economics 1012; Statistics 1770; Writing 1000 or English 1900; and all courses in the major marked with an asterisk (*) in order to meet degree requirements.
