BS/MBA in Accounting

The Accounting Department offers interested and qualified students the opportunity to earn both a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting and a Master of Business Administration degree. While this program may benefit any student interested in the accounting discipline, the program was developed in response to the adoption by most states of a 150-credit-hour educational requirement to become a Certified Public Accountant. With judicious course scheduling, most students can complete the program within five academic years.

Students interested in this B.S./M.B.A. degree program should apply to the College of Graduate and Continuing Education as prescribed by the College of Graduate and Continuing Education Catalog as early as December of their junior year at The University of Scranton. Criteria for acceptance into the combined program include the student’s previous academic performance, GMAT score, letters of recommendation and statement of purpose. Students must adhere to requirements as listed in the College of Graduate and Continuing Education Catalog.
