ACCELERATED OPTION: You can earn your bachelor's and master's in five years and at a significant savings: Accelerated degree option.

The Accelerated B.S./M.S.A. program allows outstanding, full-time accounting students to earn both B.S. and M.S.A. degrees by completing 150 semester hours of coursework, which is the minimum number of credit hours required to obtain the CPA license in Ohio and most other states.  The program will provide students with funding opportunities for the fifth year through graduate assistantships, professional internships, and scholarships.
