These societies administer a series of examinations that lead to the risk analyst designation or actuaries, first to the designation of associate and then to fellow. The initial exams are the same for both societies. The courses required for the major and the minor will aid the student in preparing for the first two of the professional societies' examinations. They will also satisfy their Validation by Educational Experience (VEE) ([https://www.soa.org/education/exam](https://www.soa.org/education/exam)req/edu-vee.aspx) requirements in economics, corporate finance, and mathematical statistics.  \nActuarial Science involves applying probability theory and risk management to the areas of life and health insurance, property and casualty insurance, pension plans, and other employee benefit plans.  \nRisk analysts and actuaries, who evaluate the long-term financial impact of these plans on both the issuing company and the purchaser or beneficiary of the plan, are employed by insurance companies, consulting firms, large corporations, and governmental agencies. The major in actuarial science emphasizes the mathematical theory that underlies risk evaluation.  \nAdmission  \nAdvanced placement in mathematics is possible for well-prepared students.  \nStandards  \nAll courses presented for the major and the minor(s) must be completed with C-or higher grades with an overall GPA of 2.0 or higher. A maximum of two grades of C-may be presented for the major. Repeated courses in the major or minor require specific approval of the department chair. The average grade for all courses taken in actuarial science and mathematics must be C-or higher. Note that although the major only requires a grade of C-or above for graduation, ECON 101 PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS I, ECON 102 PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS II, FIN 311 PRINCIPLES OF FINANCE, FIN 321 INVESTMENTS, and ACSC 348 MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS must be passed with a grade of B-or above to fulfill Validation by Educational Experience (VEE) requirements for the CAS (Casualty Actuarial Society) and the SOA (Society of Actuaries) . Students with a grade of C+ or below in ECON 101 PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS I, ECON 102 PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICS II, FIN 311 PRINCIPLES OF FINANCE, FIN 321 INVESTMENTS, or ACSC 348 MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS are strongly encouraged to retake the course to earn a grade of B-or above.  \nRequirements  \n• At least four courses in Actuarial Science must be completed at Roosevelt University.  \n• All courses presented for the major must be completed with C-or higher grades with an overall GPA of 2.0 or higher. A maximum of two grades of C-may be presented for the major.  \n• The BA degree requires a Finance minor (for non-Business majors)([https://catalog.roosevelt.edu/undergraduate/business/minor/](https://catalog.roosevelt.edu/undergraduate/business/minor/)finance-minor-non-business-majors/) .  \n• Students completing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Actuarial Science must take at least one professional exam prior to graduation. Proof should be submitted to the chair.  \n• All credit must be approved by the department to be applied toward the major.  \nRecommendations  \n• Appropriate supporting courses in computer science, economics, and finance are recommended.  \n• Students should prepare to take an actuarial professional exam early in their degree plan, which is often a requirement for actuarial internships. Both ACSC 367 FINANCIAL MATH and ACSC 347 PROBABILITY THEORY correspond to the content of the first two of these actuarial professional exams; the corresponding seminar courses ACSC 380FM ACTUARIAL SCIENCE SEMINAR:EXAM FM/2 and ACSC 380P ACTUARIAL SCIENCE SEMINAR: EXAM P/1 aid i","cbCaim1ORbpKuxEj","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaim1ORbpKuxEj","pdf",84204,"English","# Admission\n# Standards\n# Requirements\n# Recommendations\n## Major sequence (core)\n## Required programming and VEE-related courses","[{\"question\":\"What professional pathways do the actuarial exams support for this BA program?\",\"answer\":\"The program references designation routes administered by the Society of Actuaries and the Casualty Actuarial Society, progressing from associate to fellow through a series of examinations.\"},{\"question\":\"What grade and GPA standards are required for the major and minor?\",\"answer\":\"Courses for the major and minor must be completed with C-or higher grades and an overall GPA of at least 2.0.
