The Scholars Undergraduate Curriculum
The Scholars Program undergraduate curriculum provides a foundation in the core areas of knowledge supporting success in the business community and in leadership positions throughout many industries.
To complete the Scholars program curricular requirements, students must complete two semesters each of coursework inaccounting, financial economics, and leadership/organizational behavior prior to graduation.
All courses may be used to meet other major, general education, or sequence requirements.
Students applying to become Robert Day Scholars must be confident of their ability to meet the curricular requirements of the program, including possible prerequisite courses.
Please also note that there are numerous non-CMC courses that have previously satisfied these prerequisites and program course requirements. After selection as a Scholar, the Dean of the Robert Day School becomes an additional academic advisor to all Scholars.
The following courses satisfy the Scholars curricular requirements:
