BUSN200 is a no-credit, no-cost course required for completion of your undergraduate business administration degree in all concentrations in the Opus College of Business.
Spring, Summer and Fall Semester Registration:
Registration for BUSN200 is through Murphy, like other classes at UST (the exception being J-Term, which is explained below).
Review the BUSN200 sections carefully. Your BUSN200 classes will always meet at the same time on the same day of the week. However, note that your class only meets four times during the semester.
Be certain you can attend all four classes. BUSN200 has a 100% attendance requirement.
If you do not attend all four class sessions, you will need to take BUSN200 again the following semester. This is the case even if you are in your graduation semester.
J-Term Registration:
To register for BUSN200 for J-Term, you must first meet with Dr. Barbara Gorski to get permission. She will then register you.
To arrange a convenient time to meet with Dr. Gorski, call the McNeely front desk at (651) 962-5544. When you make your appointment, ask for the entry in Dr. Gorski’s calendar to be flagged ”for J-Term Registration.”
Please bring the following typed information to that meeting:
1. The site at which you will be completing your service, and a text copy of their mission.
2. The name, position, e-mail and phone number of the person with whom you have made arrangements at the service site.
3. The exact schedule you will follow to ensure completion of your 40 hours of service by the last day of classes for J-Term.
To be registered for J-Term, you need to be certain that you can complete all 40 hours during J-Term; no hours can be rolled over to spring semester. Thus, if you don’t finish all BUSN200 requirements by the last day of classes in J-Term, you will need to start BUSN200 – including all of your service hours – over again in spring semester.
Another option is to begin your hours during J-Term, but save registration and completion (of both hours and classes) for spring semester. If you select this option, you must complete assignments up to and including Journal #2 before starting your service. Any hours served prior to submitting these assignments will not count towards your BUSN200 requirements.
The course is graded “S” for Satisfactory or “R” for Redo. If you do not finish all of the BUSN200 requirements by Study Day of the semester you started the course, you will receive an “R.” For those students whose service sites require them to continue past Study Day, an “I” will be given for Incomplete.
