probably stupid haas question

<p>if you are able to register and take all the classes (nearly impossible to do w/o being in the major I know) can you petition for the degree when you are about to graduate? </p>

<p>I ask because I had a friend at UCSB who couldn't get into econ straight away because of a C in a pre req but she stuck with all the classes and they let her slide when she petitioned to graduate. not sure if CAL works the same way, but bureaucracies tend to let stuff go out of pure lack of coordination. </p>

<p>thank you</p>

<p>You must declare some major well before graduation time or you will be blocked from registering. Now, the interesting question is whether someone who has all the prereq and upper required classes could switch to a different major in the same college - declare some other major very late - and still snag the degree that same year. Probably. </p>

<p>However, you are asking about Haas which is not like most majors, it has formal admissions into the last two years and is not flexible and fluid about declaring like most other majors. It is more of an admission into a different college than it is a major within the same college.</p>

<p>Sorry BPkid101, for Haas it’s not possible.</p>

<p>thanks for the info, I plan on taking a fair amount of haas courses regardless~ just wanted to know if I could actually make it amount to something or if it would all just be elective credits… </p>

<p>oh ya is there a limit to how many haas classes you can take? thanks for the info fellas.</p>

<p>What year are you? Why are you not majoring in business? It seems like you’re genuinely interested in it.</p>

<p>It’s actually pretty difficult to get into Haas classes if you’re not a Haas major, unfortunately (especially the upper div electives).</p>

<p>I learned about the business administration major to late in to my CC career, I had already finished a year + 1 semester of summer school; for haas a transfer needs entirely different classes, IGETC is a no go, you have to complete the 7 breadths or w/e to apply. I had planned on being an economics/math major regardless. I just plan on using some of the business classes in the corporate world. I figure haas has a lot of practical knowledge for the work place and possibly better connections just from meeting people in class. It isn’t hugely important to me, more of a curiosity to see if taking the classes will amount to anything scholastically or if it will just be for its intrinsic value.</p>

<p>is there any limit to the number of haas classes you can take out of major? I swear I read something on that before.</p>
