The curriculum of the M.S.A. program is designed to provide students with an in-depth examination of critical accounting, tax and financial issues. Students will take a total of 33 to 42 credit hours depending on their prior academic background. Of the 33 minimum required hours, 22 must be in accounting courses. The fall and spring 16-week terms are divided into two seven-week modules, A and B, with each module course being two credit hours. To provide students with a broad variety of elective courses, classes are scheduled in the morning, afternoon and evening, Monday through Thursday, as well as Saturday morning.
