MAcc Accounting

A business undergraduate degree is crucial for success in pursuing the MACC as it provides foundational knowledge in key areas like accounting, finance, and management, fulfilling most, if not all of the prerequisite requirements. Additionally, it offers a competitive advantage during the admissions process and equips you with essential skills and networking opportunities, enhancing your readiness for advanced business studies and future career prospects. Overall, combining a business undergraduate degree with the MACC provides a comprehensive understanding of business theory and practice, preparing you for leadership roles in various industries. 

If you do not have an undergraduate degree in business, you can prepare for success in our MACC program by completing courses in key business subjects such as accounting, business statistics, finance, economics, marketing, and management. You should consider options such as completing a minor in business during your undergraduate studies or taking relevant courses as a graduate student. Additionally, you may explore alternative avenues such as completing courses at a community college, CLEP exams, online platforms like Straighterline, or specialized leveling courses offered by the COB Graduate Program. If your undergraduate degree is not in business, reach out to the COB Graduate Program Managers for guidance and more information on the most suitable preparation path for your individual circumstances.
