NMC Code 105
NMC offers an online alternative for students pursuing an Associate in Applied Science degree in Business Administration. Students are strongly encouraged to meet with an academic advisor because not all classes are offered online every semester, and students must complete an internship, which requires on-site attendance.
If you are seeking online courses for your specific program that are not currently offered online, visit Michigan Colleges Online at www.micollegesonline.org for online course options.
