🎯 About Business Elective at Nexford
What does 'Elective credit' mean at Nexford University?
Elective credit fills the elective portion of a Nexford degree — credits required for graduation but not tied to a specific named course or general education category. Every Nexford degree program reserves a portion of total credits for electives, which gives students flexibility to round out their program.
How many elective credits do I need for my Nexford degree?
Nexford's degree programs each define an elective credit minimum within the total (60 credits for the Associate, 120 for the Bachelor's). The specific count varies by program. Check Nexford's current academic catalog for the exact elective credit requirement.

Is elective credit 'worth less' than named course credit?
No — credit is credit toward your Nexford degree. Elective credits count fully toward the 60-credit Associate or 120-credit Bachelor's total. The only difference is they fill the 'elective' bucket on your transcript rather than a specific named course. They have the same weight in graduation requirements.

Taking this course toward Nexford
