Notes on the marketing requirements:

  • At least half the courses for the marketing major—including the business school core, the globalization course, and the specific marketing courses—must be taken at St. John Fisher College.
  • Students should pay careful attention to course prerequisites.
  • Marketing majors may not declare a minor in either management or human resources management

For students majoring in marketing, all business core, globalization, and marketing courses are included in the determination of the grade point average in the major. Although majors need to achieve a 2.00 grade point average in these courses, it is not necessary to earn a grade of “C” or above in every course.
