Master of Accountancy  

The program leads to the degree of Master of Accountancy; its built-in flexibility allows students with different levels of academic backgrounds to participate in the program.

Three objectives guide the design of the curriculum for the Master of Accountancy Degree: (1) Professional competency, (2) Satisfaction of the educational requirement to sit for the U.S. Uniform Certified Public Accountant Examination (CPA exam) and (3) Preparation for the CPA examination.

Consistent with UNVA current requirements for Master’s Degree Programs, the program totals 42 credit hours and is divided into two levels of instruction: level I courses (“Core Courses”) and level II courses (“Concentration Courses”). The former consists of four courses, totaling 12 credit hours; the latter, ten courses totaling 30 credit hours.

The disciplines selected and the required number of credit hours provide the student with technical knowledge and skills deemed by state Boards of Accountancy as necessary to be a competent public accountant
International students with a three-year college degree are required to complete appropriate foundation courses as determined by the Department Chair before they are eligible to enroll in the program.
