LSE offers courses in Finance and Business and Management that will count for Kenan-Flagler business credit.
You will take either one or two courses in this program in consecutive sessions. These classes will transfer back 4 UNC credits for each successfully completed course (LSE grade above 40). If you are taking a business elective equivalent course or a 3-credit hour core class equivalent at LSE, 3 credits will transfer back as business credits, and 1 credit hour will transfer back as general elective hours/hours towards graduation. If you are taking the BUSI 411 equivalent course, as BUSI 411 is a 1.5 credit hour course here at UNC, 1.5 hours will transfer towards BUSI 411, and the other 2.5 will transfer back as general elective hours towards graduation. Full-time enrollment in this program is defined as 4 credit hours per session.
Business and Management courses (with the exception of MGs 110, 130, 133, and 203) and all Finance courses were approved for BUSI elective credit for Summer 2023. Course information for Summer 2024 will be coming in December. You may submit full syllabi for any additional 200+ level management, accounting, or finance course at LSE you’d like to be considered as BUSI elective. You cannot take economics based courses for business elective credit. If you have a question about a course, please email us at ubpglobal@kenan-flagler.unc.edu
· MG106 for BUSI 411 (offered in Session 1)
· MG204 for BUSI 405 (offered in Session 2)
· FM250 for BUSI 408 (offered in Session 1)*
· AC110 for BUSI 407 (offered in Session 1)
· MG101 for BUSI 406 (offered in Session 1)
*Note: FM250 for BUSI408 has been notoriously challenging for Kenan-Flagler students in past summer terms as taking this semester-long course over three weeks is challenging both in content and time. We encourage you to think through this carefully should you decide to enroll in the course.
Students wishing to take business pre-requisite courses or other non-business courses at LSE should pursue study abroad through the UNC Study Abroad Office.
Courses taken through the program will transfer back to UNC Pass (Grade of C and above)/Fail (Grade of C- and below) – (LSE grade of 40 and above)/Fail (LSE grade below 40). Pass grades do not affect your UNC GPA. Fail grades transfer back to UNC as Fs, which will affect your UNC GPA. Though transfer credit for this program is Pass/Fail, future employers and graduate schools will also look at the transcript, so grades are essential. Courses that are not pre-approved for business credit will transfer back as general, non-business hours toward graduation. View the ‘Credit Hour Conversions’ accordion on the ‘Academics Procedures‘ page for information on credit hour conversion from LSE to UNC.
To ensure that your course selections transfer back to UNC, you are required to submit an official course transfer request to the Course Request Database as soon as you have access to your course syllabi. This applies to all courses for academic credit, including pre-approved courses. Please review a Credit Transfer MyKE Overview for more information on transferring coursework, credit requirements, etc.
This program also fulfills the Experiential Education/High-Impact Experience requirement.
