*This sample plan is one possible layout for course work.  Courses do not have to be taken in this exact order, but it should be noted that many courses have prerequisites that will affect the order in which a sequence of courses must be taken.  Students should meet with advisors regularly to address these issues and confirm that all requirements are satisfied.

 

**Students must take a FSB/Miami Plan capstone in the senior year; first semester enrollment is encouraged due to limited availability in second semester.

 

Students must also meet the overall, business, and departmental grade point averages as required for specific programs.
