All students declaring a major or business minor in the RSB must first pass a RSB approved Excel competency exam. Students will have three attempts to demonstrate competency with a grade of 80% or higher. This is not for a grade or academic credit. Students may declare as soon as these criteria are satisfied, but have until the end of the first two weeks of their junior fall semester to declare a RSB major or business minor.* Students not meeting these criteria may appeal to the RSB Undergraduate Affairs Committee one time. Those denied upon appeal may not declare a RSB major or a business minor and must pursue a different academic program of study.
