General requirements

Candidates with undergraduate degrees in arts and sciences are welcome to apply. However, general business credits are required to sit for the CPA exam, in addition to accounting credits.
Our program only offers 4 credits in general business. As a result, if the candidate with an undergraduate degree in arts and sciences wishes to pursue a CPA license, the additional general business credits must be obtained from another source.
While accounting-related work experience is not required, some work experience is beneficial. No GMAT is required.
