The Accounting minor is for students desiring accounting education in financial statement preparation, budgeting, costing and accounting systems at a level beyond the user of financial information but less than the preparation for being a professional accountant. The minor is especially useful to students whose career paths are in business, not-for-profit and governmental organizations where dealing with financial issues will be an important part of their duties.

The �������� Department of Accounting provides accelerated pathways to help highly motivated students reach their academic goals ahead of schedule—whether that means finishing a bachelor’s degree on an expedited timeline or earning both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in accounting in just four years.

3+1 Program - Four Years, Two Degrees

The 3+1 program is an accelerated path to a master's degree in accounting. Highly motivated business students, who enter �������� with a minimum of 15 advanced college credits, can earn both a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) degree in Accounting and a Master of Science in Accounting degree (MSA) in only four years.

Academic Requirements

The 3+1 BBA and MSA program is open exclusively to highly motivated first-year entering students, who have earned a minimum of 15 advanced college credits before entry into the program.

In their “senior” or fourth year, students who maintain academic excellence during their BBA program will be admitted into the MSA program. Students may opt out of the MSA program if their plans change and graduate with their BBA degree.
