If questions come up, your Academic Advisor or Success Coach can help.

The Office of the University Registrar develops and maintains program requirements in Degree Works. Degree Works is a useful advising tool for students and should be used in careful consultation with your academic advisor.

Degree Works clearly displays all graduation requirements and fulfills requirements based on a "best fit" algorithm, which always shows the quickest path to degree completion for a student. It displays any Concentration requirements as well. Some degree requirements include:

• coursework (foundation and graduate-level work)
• GPA
• credit totals
• grade requirements

Your Academic Advisor or Success Coach is your primary point of contact throughout your program. They can support you with course planning and registration, understanding degree requirements and timelines, navigating academic policies and procedures, and connecting you with appropriate campus resources. Most students will work primarily with an Academic Advisor or Success Coach during their program. Access Step 3 of the Newly Admitted Student Checklist in the first section of this handbook for how to contact or schedule an appointment with your Academic Advisor or Success Coach. 

Program Directors provide guidance on program-level academic matters, including interpretation of academic policies, review of academic progress in complex or exceptional situations, and decisions related to academic standing or progression. Students are typically referred to a Program Director by their Academic Advisor or Success Coach when appropriate.

Graduate business students (MBA, MS Finance, and Certificate programs) can schedule an appointment with their Academic Advisor or Rowan Online Success Coach using Rowan Success Network, commonly called RSN. 

RSN is Rowan's tool for academic advising scheduling and important communications, e.g., between faculty and students.

See Step 3: “Connect with Your Academic Support Team” in the Newly Admitted Student Checklist for step-by-step instructions for how to schedule an appointment with your assigned Academic Advisor or Success Coach.

Our advising and support model is designed to be collaborative, flexible, and responsive. While roles and structures may evolve over time, our commitment remains the same: to provide timely, personalized guidance that supports your academic success and professional goals.

Information for international students: minimum enrollment requirements, on/off-campus employment regulations, and off-campus services.

Foundation courses may be required as part of a student’s academic pathway, depending on academic background and program. Requirements are individualized and outlined in the official admission letter. For details on how to satisfy Foundation requirements, see the Foundation Fact Sheet.

The Foundation Fact Sheet provides detailed guidance on:

• which Foundation courses may be required and how requirements are determined;
• options for completing Foundation coursework at Rowan or through approved external providers;
• transfer credit, CLEP exam options, and other approved alternatives;
• how and when to complete Foundation courses in relation to graduate coursework; and
• how to submit transcripts or documentation for completed coursework.

Students are encouraged to review the Foundation Fact Sheet early in their program to support timely planning and progression. Academic Advisors and Success Coaches are available to help students interpret Foundation requirements and develop an academic plan that aligns with their goals.

Transferring Graduate-Level Coursework

Students entering a graduate program may be eligible to apply previously completed graduate-level coursework toward their degree, depending on the type of coursework completed and institutional policies.

Transfer of Graduate Coursework from Other Institutions
Students may be eligible to transfer up to 9 credits from a previously completed master’s degree into the MBA program. To be considered for transfer, coursework must meet the following criteria.

• Completed within the past ten years
• Earned with a grade of B or better
• Completed at an appropriately accredited institution (e.g., AACSB, ABET)

Approved transfer credits may be applied only as MBA electives and may not be used to satisfy core or Concentration course requirements.

To request a transfer credit evaluation, students must submit a completed Graduate & Post-Bac Transfer Credit Evaluation Form (TCEF) along with a link to the original institution’s course description.

Course Substitutions for Core Requirements
While graduate coursework from another institution cannot replace required MBA core courses directly, students who believe they have previously completed substantially similar coursework may request a review. In these cases, a syllabus may be submitted to the Program Director for consideration. When approved, this may allow a student to substitute a more advanced or alternate graduate-level course in place of a required core course, enabling continued academic progression without repeating similar material.

When planning your coursework, it’s helpful to think ahead about which elective or Concentration courses you may want to take. While core courses are typically offered at least once each Fall and Spring term, some elective and Concentration courses are offered less frequently. Planning early can help ensure you’re able to take advantage of the options that best align with your academic and professional goals.

Your Academic Advisor or Success Coach can help you map out a course plan that accounts for course availability, sequencing, and your anticipated timeline to completion.

Academic calendars, including holidays, breaks, and standard semester start and end dates, are published on the Rowan University Academic Calendar.

Please note that course start and end dates may vary based on delivery format. Online courses are typically accelerated and follow schedules that differ from the traditional academic calendar.

To confirm the specific start and end dates for your courses, students should refer to Section Tally, which provides the most accurate and up-to-date course information for each term.

Registration-related dates for all terms are available on the University Registrar’s webpage.

Program requirements, course descriptions, and prerequisites for all programs are published in the Rowan University Academic Catalog. The catalog serves as the official source of academic information for undergraduate, graduate, and post-baccalaureate programs, including those offered in online, accelerated, and off-site formats.

In addition to the Academic Catalog, students can use Section Tally to view real-time course offerings. Section Tally allows students to:

• see which courses are being offered in a given term;
• review delivery formats (online, hybrid, or in person);
• view prerequisites and restrictions; and
• check seat availability.

If you have questions about how specific courses fit into your academic plan or degree requirements, your Academic Advisor or Success Coach can help you map out a plan aligned with your goals.

Graduate business courses are offered in multiple formats to support working professionals and diverse learning needs. Understanding how courses are structured will help you plan your schedule effectively.

Face-to-Face Courses
Most face-to-face courses run for the full semester, typically 16 weeks in length. These courses generally meet one evening per week from 6:30–9:15 p.m. on the Glassboro campus. In Section Tally, these courses are identified as “Evening” and include specific meeting dates and times.

Online Courses
Most online courses are offered in an accelerated 8-week format and are delivered through Canvas, Rowan’s learning management system. Online courses are typically offered during either the first or second half of the semester, allowing students the opportunity to complete two online courses in a row (but not at the same time) within a single term if desired.

Mixing Course Formats
Depending on program requirements and course availability, students may be able to take a combination of online and face-to-face courses within the same semester. Planning ahead is important, as not all courses are offered every term or in every format.

Students are encouraged to review course formats and availability using Section Tally and to discuss their individual plans with an Academic Advisor or Success Coach to ensure alignment with program requirements and personal schedules.

Students are responsible for obtaining required course materials prior to the start of each term. Course-specific textbook information is available through the Rowan University Bookstore, located within the Barnes & Noble bookstore on Rowan Boulevard. Students can use the online Course Textbook tool to view required and recommended materials for each registered course.

Students may purchase textbooks directly through the Rowan Bookstore, which is often the fastest option and may be especially important for students beginning their first semester or enrolling close to the start of a term. Purchasing early helps ensure access to required materials by the first day of class.

Students may also use the Course Textbook tool to identify required materials and to inform them before exploring alternative purchasing options, such as used or digital copies. When choosing alternative formats or older editions, students are encouraged to confirm with their instructor that the selected version aligns with current course requirements. In some cases, updated content, assignments, or access codes may be required for successful course participation.

Students should plan ahead when ordering materials to allow sufficient time for delivery and to avoid beginning the term without required resources.

Because Rowan offers an MS in Finance, MBA students also have access to a wide range of finance-focused courses that may be applied toward a Finance Concentration or selected as free-standing electives.

MBA students interested in developing stronger quantitative, analytical, or financial expertise may choose to pursue a Finance Concentration to prepare for roles such as chief financial officer, financial manager, corporate controller, risk manager, or positions within banking, investment management, or insurance organizations. Students who do not plan to complete a full Concentration may still benefit from selecting one or two Finance courses to support interests such as personal financial planning or financial literacy for leadership roles.

When planning finance-related coursework, students may wish to consider courses aligned with specific areas of interest, such as:

• Corporate Finance: Financial Statement Analysis; Derivative Securities and Financial Risk Management; Financial Modeling; Multinational Finance Management
• Investment and Asset Management: Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management; Fixed Income Securities; Derivative Securities and Financial Risk Management; Financial Statement Analysis
• Commercial Banking: Financial Institutions Management; Multinational Finance Management; Derivative Securities and Financial Risk Management; Financial Statement Analysis
• Personal Finance and Retirement Planning: Advanced Financial Planning; Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management

Students interested in earning both the Master of Business Administration (MBA) and the Master of Science in Finance (MSF) may be eligible to complete both degrees in a streamlined and cost-effective way. When coordinated in advance, students may apply up to 15 shared credits toward both degrees, reducing duplication and accelerating progress toward graduation.

This pathway is designed for students who want to strengthen their analytical, quantitative, and strategic finance capabilities while developing their business expertise in another area of interest. Because this pathway requires thoughtful sequencing and adherence to academic policy, students are strongly encouraged to work closely with their Academic Advisor or Success Coach early in their program.

Additional details are outlined later in this handbook under “Accelerated MBA/MS Finance Pathway Requirements.”

For full program details and eligibility criteria, please visit the MBA/MS Finance Accelerated Pathway webpage.

The Rowan University Master of Business Administration (MBA) program consists of 36 graduate credits total with 18 required credits (8 courses) and 18 elective or Concentration credits (6 courses). The 18 required credits are core business courses. The 6 elective courses allow the student to tailor their academic program to meet their specific career development needs and interests.

The time to completion for the MBA program is flexible and varies depending on student preference (and Foundation courses completed prior to starting the MBA). Many students are working full-time jobs and pursuing coursework part-time, which typically results in a two-to-three-year time period for MBA degree completion. Some students pursue MBA courses full-time, and time to completion ranges from one year (Fall, Spring, and Summer study) to two years (typically Fall and Spring study only; Summer study is possible but only online courses are offered in Summer). International students (those on an F-1 student visa) pursuing the MBA should plan for a 2-year timeline for degree completion.

The maximum time to completion allowed is seven years. If you are approaching or exceeding this timeline, please contact your Academic Advisor and/or Success Coach for guidance through RSN. They will work with you to review your situation, help gather the relevant information, and submit the extension request on your behalf. Your advisor or coach will then coordinate with the MBA Program Director, who reviews and approves any decisions regarding which completed courses can still be applied toward your degree and whether any courses may need to be repeated or replaced.

The Rowan University Master of Science in Finance program consists of 10 graduate classes, a total of 30 graduate-level credits. This is a part-time only program. All courses are offered in the online format; occasionally some courses are offered face-to-face on the main Glassboro campus, and online students are eligible to enroll if interested.

The time to completion is flexible, although most students complete the degree in two years by pursuing two courses each semester over five semesters (Fall Year 1, Spring Year 1, Summer Year 1, Fall Year 2, and Spring Year 2). The sequencing of courses requires adherence to prerequisites, so students should work with their Academic Advisor and/or Success Coach for guidance with course schedule planning.

The maximum time to completion allowed is seven years. If you are approaching or exceeding this timeline, please contact your Academic Advisor and/or Success Coach for guidance through RSN. They will work with you and the Program Director to determine which courses will still satisfy degree requirements and which courses may need to be replaced.

The Rowan University COGS and CAGS vary in the number of courses required for each (see details on the Certificate of Graduate Study Program site), and each varies in terms of time to completion.

Students pursuing COGS and CAGS typically are working full time and pursuing coursework part-time. Most students complete the COGS and CAGS within two years of study.

The maximum time to completion allowed is three years; after that point, you will need to work with the Program Director to determine which courses will still satisfy degree requirements and which courses may need to be replaced with more recent coursework.

Understanding tuition costs, billing timelines, and payment options is an important part of planning for your graduate studies. The information below outlines how tuition is assessed, where to find billing details, and who to contact with questions.

Tuition Structure and Credit-Based Billing

Graduate business courses are billed per credit, not per semester. Unlike some undergraduate programs that use flat-rate tuition, students are charged based on the total number of credits for which they are registered each term.

Most MS in Finance, COGS, and CAGS courses are 3 credits each. In the MBA and Business COGS curriculum, some courses are 3 credits, while others are 1.5 credits. Tuition charges will vary depending on the number of credits a student registers for in a given term.

Tuition and fees are charged per credit and remain consistent across terms, including Fall, Spring, and Summer. This means that a course taken in the summer term costs the same per credit as a course taken during the academic year.

Understanding how credit-based billing works can help students plan their course load, manage costs, and make informed decisions about pacing their degree.

Tuition and Fees

Current tuition and fee rates are published on the Bursar’s website and should be referenced for the most accurate and up-to-date information. Please note that tuition and fee charges may appear differently depending on course format (for example, online versus on-campus), but the total cost per credit remains consistent.

Viewing Your Tuition Bill

Students can view their tuition bill through Self Service Banner by navigating to Bursar, then Official Billing, then Account Statement, or by accessing the Bursar ePay Center.

Billing Due Dates and Payment Expectations

Billing due dates are published on the Bursar’s website each term. Students who register after the posted payment due date are required to pay immediately upon registration. Failure to make payment or establish an official payment arrangement by the appropriate deadline may result in being dropped from courses for nonpayment. Nonattendance does not constitute an official drop or withdrawal, and students may remain financially responsible for registered coursework. See Add/Drop and Course Withdrawal Policies in the next section for details.

Payment Options and Payment Plan

The Bursar’s website also provides additional guidance related to billing and payment. See Payment Methods and Plans.

Rowan University offers a Deferred Tuition Payment Plan that allows students to pay their balance in five monthly installments. To participate, students must pay one-fifth of the total balance due (after financial aid, scholarships, or loans are applied) along with a nonrefundable enrollment fee. Remaining installments are billed monthly to the student’s Rowan email address.

Employer Tuition Assistance

Graduate students may also receive tuition assistance through their employer. Employer reimbursement requirements vary and may include documentation such as an admission letter, tuition bill, or final grades. In many cases, students must pay tuition upfront and submit required documentation to their employer for reimbursement once grades are posted.

Federal Tuition Assistance and SF-182 Forms

Students who need to submit a federal SF-182 form or who receive tuition assistance through a U.S. government agency should contact the Office of the Bursar for assistance. The Bursar’s Office can be reached at bursar@rowan.edu or 856-256-4150.

More Billing and Payment Details

If you have questions about tuition, billing, or payment options, the Office of the Bursar is the best point of contact. Additional information is also available on the Bursar’s website. See the Frequently Asked Questions page on the Bursar’s website for more details.

Understanding the add/drop and withdrawal processes is important when adjusting your course schedule. Policies and timelines vary by term and course format, so students are encouraged to review deadlines carefully and act promptly when changes are needed. Detailed information and required forms are available on the Registrar’s website.

Add/Drop Period
For most Rowan University courses, the standard add/drop period occurs during the first five business days of the term. During this time, students may add or drop courses without academic or financial penalty.

Some accelerated courses, particularly those offered during Summer or Winter sessions, may have shorter add/drop periods. Students should always confirm course-specific deadlines on the Registrar’s General Registration Information page.

Withdrawing from a Course
After the add/drop period has ended, students who wish to withdraw from a course must submit a completed and signed Rowan University Course Withdrawal Form within the published withdrawal deadlines.

Please note

• Withdrawals submitted after the add/drop period do not result in a tuition refund.
• A withdrawal will appear on the academic transcript with a grade of W, WF, or WP, depending on the timing of the withdrawal.
• Withdrawn courses count as attempted credits for academic purposes.

Course registration opens within the same timeframe every academic year.

• Fall semester: March
• Spring semester: October
• Summer term: February

We recommend all students schedule appointments with their Academic Advisor and/or Success Coach for guidance with course scheduling PRIOR to registration opening for the semester in which you would like to take courses.

Registration-related dates for all terms are available on the University Registrar’s webpage.

For details on how to connect with your Academic Advisor, Success Coach, and/or Program Director, see Step 3: “Connect with Your Academic Support Team” in the Newly Admitted Student Checklist.

Follow these Registration Instructions to register yourself for classes after meeting with your Academic Advisor or Success Coach.

If you have registration holds (e.g., GPA Requirement, Degree Pending, Foundation Course Requirements), then you must send an email to the appropriate Academic Advisor and/or Success Coach for assistance.

For any technical issues with course registration (e.g., prerequisite errors), please also contact the appropriate Academic Advisor and/or Success Coach.

Section Tally is a tool organized by term and includes all Rowan course offerings. Section Tally lists all registration-related information for each course including start and end dates, meeting days, times, location, mode of delivery (hybrid, online, etc.) instructor, prerequisites/restrictions, and whether there is any space available in the class.

For detailed instructions on navigating Section Tally, please review the Section Tally Quick Guide.

• Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy
• Student Life & Student Affairs Policy Category

Rowan University has established procedures for students who have questions or concerns about a final course grade or believe a grade may have been assigned in error. Students are encouraged to review the information below to understand appropriate steps, timelines, and available support.

Informal Review of a Grade

If you have a question or concern about a grade, the first step is to communicate directly with the course instructor. In many cases, questions about grading criteria, calculations, or assignment feedback can be resolved through discussion and clarification.

Students are encouraged to initiate this conversation as soon as possible after final grades are posted and to retain any relevant documentation related to coursework or assessments.

Formal Grade Dispute Process

If a concern cannot be resolved through informal discussion with the instructor, students may pursue a formal grade dispute in accordance with Rowan University policy. The grade dispute process includes clearly defined steps, timelines, and documentation requirements.

Information about the formal process, including eligibility and submission requirements, is available through the Grade Dispute Policy page. If unresolved, you may use internal mechanisms such as the Integrity Hotline (available 24/7) or submit a formal complaint via the University’s student complaint or grade-dispute procedures.

Students should be aware that grade disputes are evaluated based on academic judgment, consistency with course policies, and documented evidence. Disagreement with an instructor’s academic judgment alone is not sufficient grounds for a grade change.

Grade Changes

Grade changes may occur under limited circumstances, such as administrative or clerical errors, or when a formal grade dispute has been reviewed and approved. Requests for grade changes must follow University policy and be submitted through the appropriate academic channels.

Grades are subject to change under the following conditions: incompletes (IN), errors, and disputes. If an error has been made, the grade will be changed to the actual grade the student earned. A disputed grade will be changed if the student’s appeal is successful.

A change of grade is not a substitute for an incomplete (IN). If a student has “work missing” at the end of a semester—exams, papers, assignments to be written or rewritten—an "Incomplete" may be assigned if circumstances warrant. Upon completion of the coursework within the arranged time agreed upon at the professor’s, program’s, or University’s discretion, a grade of incomplete (IN) may be changed to a letter grade.

More details are listed at Grade Change Policy.

Repeating a Course and Grade Replacement

If a student repeats a course, the full tuition must be paid again for the repeated enrollment. The grade earned in the repeated course will become the official grade used in calculating the student’s cumulative GPA, regardless of whether the new grade is higher or lower than the original grade.

The original grade will remain visible on the student’s academic transcript; however, it will no longer be included in the GPA calculation once the course has been successfully repeated.

Students considering repeating a course are encouraged to consult with their Academic Advisor or Success Coach to understand how repeating a course may impact academic standing, progress toward degree completion, and financial planning.

For full policy details, refer to the Repeating a Course Policy.

Support and Guidance

If you are unsure how to proceed or would like guidance before initiating a grade dispute or requesting a grade change, you are encouraged to connect with your Academic Advisor or Success Coach. For details on how to connect with your Academic Advisor, Success Coach, and/or Program Director, see Step 3: “Connect with Your Academic Support Team” in the Newly Admitted Student Checklist.

Program dismissal applies to graduate students who fail to meet required program-specific standards/requirements (such as benchmarks/candidacy exams, final capstone projects, thesis/dissertation completion, clinical and practicum placement requirements, etc.) as outlined by the academic program in which they are matriculated. If the academic program coordinators (or their appointed proxy, but henceforth collectively referred to as "Program Coordinator") determine and can document that a student has failed to meet one or more of the program’s established program-specific standards/requirements such that they are not able to progress in their graduate-level program, the academic program coordinators have the right to propose program dismissal using the following guidelines: Graduate Student Program Dismissal Guidelines.

Academic integrity is a commitment to honest, ethical behavior in all academic work. As a graduate student, you are expected to produce original work; avoid cheating, plagiarism, and fabrication; conduct research ethically; respect others’ ideas and intellectual property; and comply with copyright laws. Rowan’s Academic Integrity Policy applies to every course format—face-to-face, online, and hybrid—and holds all graduate students to the same standards of professionalism and accountability.

Violations are categorized from Level 1 (minor) to Level 4 (severe), and consequences may include failing assignments, course failure, probation, suspension, or expulsion.

Repeat or serious offenses can result in transcript notation or dismissal from the program. Because academic integrity is foundational to your degree and to the reputation of the University, it is essential to familiarize yourself with the full policy and ask your instructor if you are ever unsure how to appropriately use, cite, or collaborate on academic work.

For more details, see the full Academic Integrity Policy. Please review: Academic Integrity Policy as well as Academic Integrity Guidelines for Graduate Examination Components.

Graduate students are expected to attend all scheduled class meetings and follow the instructor’s syllabus attendance criteria. For F2F (face-to-face) and hybrid courses, missed in-person sessions require a documented excuse, and you must consult your instructor about make-up options or withdrawal timelines. For fully Online courses, your presence is confirmed by weekly engagement in the LMS (visiting required modules/tools); failure to meet deadlines or log usage may affect your grade.

Documented absences for illness, official activities, religious observance or weather must be communicated to your instructor.

For more details, see the full Attendance Policy.

The Family Educational Rights & Privacy Act (FERPA) governs what information can and cannot be shared with anyone who is not the enrolled student. The FERPA Act of 1974 protects the privacy of individual students by placing restrictions on the disclosure of information. Learn more about your FERPA rights.

The Student Code of Conduct outlines the standards of behavior expected from all Rowan University students and student organizations. It exists to promote a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning environment in line with the University’s mission and values. The Code applies to students from the time they accept admission through graduation and covers conduct that occurs on campus, at University-sponsored or affiliated events, and, in certain circumstances, off campus when the behavior affects the University community or violates University policies.

For full details, students should refer to the official Student Code of Conduct policy on the Rowan University Policy site.

Rowan University students are expected to abide by Rowan policies and applicable laws not only on campus but also in off-campus settings. The University may take disciplinary action for student behavior off campus when the conduct adversely impacts the educational mission, the safety and welfare of the University community, or the reputation of the University. This expectation is part of the Student Code of Conduct and the University’s Off-Campus Conduct Policy, which applies to all students from admission through graduation. For full details, see the Off-Campus Conduct Policy on the Rowan University Policy site.

Raising Concerns and Seeking Support

For Students

Rowan University is committed to fostering a respectful, inclusive, and supportive learning environment. The University values your educational experience and provides clear channels for raising concerns regarding programs, activities, or operations. Start by discussing concerns with your instructor, advisor, or relevant supervisor. Students are encouraged to raise concerns, ask questions, and seek resolution when issues arise related to academics, classroom experiences, or interactions within the University community.

If you experience a concern related to a faculty member, course delivery, or academic experience, you are encouraged to begin by documenting your concern and, when appropriate, attempting to resolve the matter directly with the individual involved. In many cases, open communication can help clarify expectations or resolve misunderstandings early.

Filing a Formal Complaint

If you wish to file an official complaint against another student, student group, Rowan faculty member, or Rowan administrator, there is a specific procedure that must be followed. Be sure to start by documenting your attempts to resolve the situation with your professor or administrator directly. The complaint procedure (and sequence of actions) is available at Student Complaint Procedures. Please also refer to Rowan University’s Student Code of Conduct Policy, Student Sexual Misconduct and Harassment Policy*, Complaint Processes and Procedures, and the Office of Student Equity and Compliance (OSEC) policy to file this type of complaint.

*Under Title IX, students have certain rights against discrimination, sexual misconduct, and harassment. Rowan University prohibits all forms of sexual misconduct committed by students. This policy addresses conduct not covered by the federal Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 Sexual Harassment/Sexual Assault policy, including sexual exploitation, off-campus incidents, stalking, dating/domestic violence, and other gender-based harassment. Investigations use a “preponderance of the evidence” standard. Respondents are presumed not responsible until a determination is made. Confidential resources and formal reporting options are available. Retaliation, false reports, and false statements are prohibited. The University may impose sanctions ranging from warnings to suspension or expulsion. 

To File a Formal Complaint Outside of the University

External options for filing a complaint also exist—for example, graduate students enrolled online in other states may file with the state authorizing body, the institution’s accreditor, or the U.S. Department of Education (for issues involving Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act compliance). While this applies across course formats (in-person, online, hybrid), it is especially relevant for remote learners who may rely on external recourse.

Students Are Encouraged to Notify an Advisor When Making a Formal Complaint

Although Academic Advisors and Success Coaches are not part of the formal complaint process, they can serve as helpful thought partners as you consider next steps and explore available options. See Step 3: “Connect with Your Academic Support Team” in the Newly Admitted Student Checklist in the first section of this handbook for instructions on how to contact your assigned Academic Advisor or Success Coach.

Students who wish to raise a concern directly with the Program Director may do so. Depending on the nature of the concern, information may be shared with appropriate academic leadership. When appropriate, identifying information may be withheld to support student privacy. Contact your Academic Advisor or Success Coach to get in touch with your Program Director.

The Master of Business Administration (MBA) program prepares professionals from diverse academic and professional backgrounds to lead with purpose in complex and evolving organizational environments. The curriculum emphasizes ethical and responsible leadership, strategic thinking, and data-informed decision-making across functional areas of business. Students develop strong communication, collaboration, and analytical skills through applied coursework that integrates operations, finance, marketing, information systems, and organizational leadership. The program prepares graduates to navigate organizational change, evaluate business challenges from multiple perspectives, and contribute meaningfully to organizational performance, sustainability, and societal impact in a global and technology-enabled economy.

MBA: Areas of Concentration

The MBA program consists of 36 graduate credits with 18 credits of required/core courses and 18 credits of elective or Concentration courses for students pursuing one or two areas of concentration. One Concentration is equal to 9 credits in the subject area, so students are eligible to pursue two Concentrations (18 credits total; 9 credits in each subject area) or one area of concentration (9 credits) and 3 free-standing elective courses (9 credits).

MBA Options – General vs. Concentration

Students in the MBA program have a choice of whether to pursue one or two MBA Concentrations. Completing a Concentration within an MBA degree provides a competitive advantage in the job market. It communicates to prospective employers that the graduate has an interest in and has completed advanced coursework in a specific area of business. MBA students must choose at least one Concentration when applying for the MBA program. Students then have the option to choose a second Concentration or three electives from three different areas of Concentration.

While the decision to pursue one or two Concentrations, and which additional Concentration you would like to pursue if pursuing two, does not need to be made during the first semester of study, it’s ideal to consider it as soon as possible to incorporate those courses in planning towards the overall pathway towards graduation.

If you’d like to change a declared Concentration, reach out to your advisor or coach through Rowan Success Network.

MBA Concentration Options

MBA students can choose from among the following Concentrations:

• Accounting
• Business Analytics
• Data Analytics
• Entrepreneurship
• Finance
• HR Management
• Management
• Management Information Systems
• Marketing
• Organizational Leadership
• Supply Chain and Logistical Systems
• Sustainable Business

Refer to our MBA Concentrations webpage to review requirements and options. Elective options are subject to availability in each course format and will be determined on a semester-by-semester basis.

The MS in Finance requires a total of 10 graduate courses of 3 credits each for program completion.

Students who are interested in completing both the Master of Business Administration (MBA) and the Master of Science in Finance (MSF) may be eligible to pursue an accelerated pathway that allows a portion of coursework to be shared between the two degrees. This structure allows students to complete both programs in less time and at a lower overall cost than pursuing each degree separately, while still meeting all academic and accreditation requirements.

Through this pathway, eligible students may apply up to 15 credits of approved coursework toward both the MBA and MS Finance degrees.

Participation in the accelerated pathway requires advance planning and is subject to the following conditions.

• Shared coursework must fall within approved curricular overlap between the MBA and MS Finance programs.
• Courses must be completed within the allowable time frame (generally within ten years).
• Coursework must meet academic standards and receive appropriate advising approval.
• Once a degree has been formally conferred, limitations apply to how many credits may be applied toward a second graduate degree.

Courses commonly approved for shared credit include:

• Financial Statement Analysis
• Investment Analysis and Portfolio Management
• Derivative Securities and Financial Risk Management
• Multinational Finance Management
• Financial Modeling

This pathway is particularly well suited for students seeking advanced financial expertise while maintaining flexibility in their academic planning. Because course availability, prerequisites, and sequencing can vary, early advising is strongly recommended. Students considering the accelerated MBA/MS Finance pathway should consult with their Academic Advisor or Success Coach through Rowan Success Network early in their program to develop an individualized plan of study.

Additional details, including examples of pathway structures and eligibility considerations, are available on the MBA/MS Finance Accelerated Pathway webpage.

The Office of Graduate Business Studies offers two types of graduate-level certificates: The Certificate of Graduate Study (COGS) and the Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study (CAGS).  

The Certificate of Graduate Study (COGS) programs provide graduate course exposure to students who are ultimately interested in pursuing an MBA degree. The pursuit of a COGS allows students to gain business expertise for career purposes, as well as provides an opportunity for aspirational applicants to take several classes before they apply to the MBA program. A Certificate of Graduate Study is also a valuable stand-alone credential for established professionals interested in acquiring expertise in a new skill set or area of business.

Completion of a Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study (CAGS)* allows MBA graduates to prepare for new opportunities in a constantly evolving marketplace by pursuing advanced graduate coursework related to their current or targeted career paths. *To be eligible, students must have already completed an MBA at Rowan University or another AACSB-accredited institution.

Business Certificate of Graduate Study (COGS)

The Business COGS is the most popular certificate program, providing essential graduate course exposure to students who are ultimately interested in pursuing an MBA degree. The Business COGS requires the completion of 5 core MBA graduate courses (9 credits).

For more details and Graduation Dates & Deadlines, visit the Graduation Information website.

For more details about Commencement Registration visit the Commencement Registration & Participation Requirements website.

The Graduation Team in the Office of the University Registrar reviews student transcripts to ensure they have earned the University-required credits, grades, and GPA.

To initiate the review process, students must submit a graduation application through Self-Service Banner by the published deadline in the semester they expect to complete all degree requirements. Graduation applications are reviewed by the Registrar’s Office. The Program Director will be consulted by the Office of the Registrar if DegreeWorks flags any discrepancies or missing information that requires program-level verification.

Students must apply to graduate online through Self-Service Banner (SSB) via www.rowan.edu/selfservice – select “Apply to Graduate.”

• The graduation application only takes a few minutes to complete, but graduation cannot be reviewed or officially conferred without it.
• Submitting your online application will trigger a $100 graduation application fee to be added to your Rowan account shortly after submission.
• The fee is a one-time charge and covers the processing of the application, the cost of the degree audit and evaluation, the production and mailing of the diploma by an outside service, and diploma covers distributed at commencement.

Thrive Resources

Academic Success Center (Accessibility, Mental Health, Academic Support)

The Office of Accessibility Services offers assistance for multiple challenges students might face, such as documented disabilities, mental health, and some crisis situations.

Students who experience mental health challenges as well as those students in need of temporary accommodations—such as depression, anxiety, or other life-related mental health issues—may be eligible for specific resources including extended time on tests and assignments and remote success coaching. Accessibility Services also provides accommodations and assistance to students with various documented disabilities in accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990. Students who meet University admissions requirements (i.e., otherwise qualified to attend the University) are required to submit appropriate documentation so that the University can determine whether they qualify for reasonable accommodations.

The Academic Success Center & Accessibility Services staff will coordinate to ensure accessible classes, use of assistive technology, audiotaped books (when available), and examination administration in cooperation with the instructor, as well as other services as deemed necessary.

If a student had accommodations as an undergraduate, then they are entitled to them as a Graduate student (provided they can submit appropriate documentation if they did not attend Rowan as an undergraduate student).

We strongly suggest that graduate students who are seeking support and direction on how to navigate advanced studies reach out to Lee Plenn, Assistant Director of Accessibility Services. Lee is not only a go-to person for support services at Rowan, he is proud to share his journey, successes, and lessons learned as a student who received accommodations in his graduate studies at Penn State and doctoral studies here at Rowan.

Military-Affiliated Student Support

The Office of Graduate Studies in the Rohrer College of Business is dedicated to supporting military-affiliated students, including active-duty service members, reservists, veterans, and military family members. We encourage you to take advantage of the many support resources available at Rowan University.

The Military Services Office at Rowan University serves as the liaison with the Regional Processing Office in Buffalo, New York and assists veterans and eligible dependents with education benefits. The office also provides programming and resources that support military-affiliated students throughout their academic journey.

Students who plan to use military education benefits must be enrolled in a degree-seeking program, as required for eligibility. If you are entering Rowan University for the first time and believe you may be eligible for military or veteran education benefits, you are encouraged to connect with the Military Services Office early in the process. The office can assist with understanding eligibility requirements, required documentation, certification processes, and timelines.

The Military Services Office offers both daytime and evening appointments and can be reached by phone at 856-256-4233 or by email at militaryserviceoffice@rowan.edu. Additional information related to benefits, changes in status, active duty or training obligations, scholarships, work-study opportunities, and veteran resources is available on the Military Services Office website.

Students who are called to active duty while enrolled at Rowan University may be eligible for certain academic protections and support under university and federal guidelines. Students are encouraged to notify the University as soon as possible so appropriate guidance and support can be provided.

In addition to the Military Services Office, Rowan University offers military-affiliated students support in the areas of career-readiness and physical and mental wellbeing. The University hosts military-specific student groups and events such as Military Appreciation Week and the Veteran Student Organization (VSO). Additional information can be found on the Military-Affiliated Students page on our site.

To be eligible for federal financial aid, students must:

• be admitted and matriculated into a degree-seeking program;
• be a U.S. citizen or eligible noncitizen; and
• have a valid Social Security number.

While students do not need to be admitted to apply for federal financial aid, they must be admitted and enrolled in an eligible program to receive funds.
