<p>lukuanvx, you can easily complete the finance major upper level courses in the last three semesters at Bloomington. And if you get all of these requirements out of the way before taking i-core, then it is not even that difficult to double-major in accounting and finance: 27 credit hour core; international dimension; 62 credit hour gen ed; and, of course, the i-core prerequisites. This is because a lot of the accounting classes substitute for finance requirements. See here: [Kelley</a> School of Business Undergraduate 2008-2010 Online Bulletin: Bachelor of Science in Business](<a href=“http://www.indiana.edu/~bulletin/iub/business/2008-2010/bachelor.shtml#df]Kelley”>http://www.indiana.edu/~bulletin/iub/business/2008-2010/bachelor.shtml#df)</p>
<p>My son will get the acct/finance double major, but he won’t take any 300-400 level acct/finance classes until after taking I-core next fall. His last three semesters he will take:</p>
<p>Junior 2 15 cr
BUS A311 Intermediate Accounting I (3 cr.)
BUS A325 Cost Accounting (3 cr.)
BUS Z302 Managing Behavior in Orgs (3 cr.)
BUS G345 Money, Banking, Capital (3 cr.)–this class can be applied to the finance major
BUS X420 Bus Career Plan (2 cr.)
BUS X301 Comm Accountants (1 cr.)</p>
<p>Senior 1 15 cr
BUS A312 Intermediate Accounting II (3 cr.)
BUS F303 Intermediate Investments(3 cr.)
BUS F305 Inter Corporate Finance(3 cr.)
BUS A337 Accounting Info Systems (3 cr.)
BUS A329 Taxes and Decision Making (3 cr.)</p>
<p>Senior 2 12 cr
BUS A422 AFA OR A437 (3 cr.)
BUS A424 Auditing (3 cr.)
BUS F307 Working Capital Management(3 cr.)
BUS F446 Banking and Financial Inter. (3 cr.)</p>
<p>He will probably take A329 (listed above) in the Summer 2011, as it is offered right after the Spring semester ends and meets for only three weeks, allowing him to only need 12 credit hours his Senior 1 semester.</p>
<p>Again, you have to have 27 credit hour core; international dimension; 62 credit hour gen ed; and, of course, the i-core prerequisites out of the way before the start of Junior year. But this is easy to accomplish by taking summer classes at community college, and even easier if you bring in the right AP credits and easier still if you test into the fourth semester of a foreign language and satisfy the international dimension with only one three-credit class.</p>
