Catalog 2020-2021

Certificate in Accounting

Post Baccalaureate Certificate in Accounting

Only students with an undergraduate business degree from an accredited university are eligible for this certificate. Thus, the BUS 101 prerequisite is waived for BUS 221. The purpose of the certificate is to recognize the achievement of satisfying the prerequisites for the MS-ACC program for non-accounting business majors. It is expected that virtually all students will already have taken the equivalent of ACC 202 and ACC 203 in their undergraduate business studies. Additionally, students may receive transfer credit for two other courses. Students must take a minimum of five courses in residence and cumulatively have satisfied the MS-ACC prerequisites to receive the certificate.
