Accelerated Master's Programs
for Undergraduates

BS in Accounting and MS in Accounting
Return to 2001-2002 UGB Accelerated Master's Program Menu

The accelerated program in Accounting provides the opportunity for a student to complete a BS in Accounting (122 hours) within a four-year period and to shorten the time required to finish the Master of Science degree.

Interested students should:

  • have Summer School credit or Advanced Placement credit in order to reduce the number of undergraduate hours necessary to be taken during the senior year. See AP credit courses.
  • identify themselves as potential accelerated candidates early in their academic careers in order to receive appropriate advising. Although formal admission to an accelerated program usually occurs in the junior year, careful selection of undergraduate courses beginning in the freshman year is essential. Interested students should talk with an advisor in the Department of Accounting as early as possible.
