The Lebanese High School Certificate or its equivalent
A Bachelor's degree from a university recognized by BAU with a minimum CGPA of “3.00” for the credit-hour system and its equivalent (80%) for the grading system (with a certificate equivalency from the Lebanese Ministry of Education and Higher Education). The candidates whose CGPA is below “3.00” can enroll in the MSc program under the following two conditions:
- Condition (1): Candidates with a “2.67 ≤ CGPA < 3.00” may enroll in the program on the condition that they achieve a minimum CGPA of “3.00” in the first semester of the program. - Condition (2): Candidates with a “2.33 ≤ CGPA < 2.67” may enroll in the program on the condition that they raise their CGPA to “3.00” by completing designated undergraduate courses. If they achieve a “2.67 ≤ CGPA < 3.00”, condition (1) would then be applied.
Note: The Faculty of Business Administration reviews the admission files of candidates holding bachelor’s degrees from universities that follow a grading system different from that of BAU, in accordance with the criteria set by the Lebanese Ministry of Education and Higher Education.
