Accelerated Bachelor’s to MAcc
Master of Accountancy | Online or Face-to-Face | 4 + 1
Stetson University's Master of Accountancy (MAcc) helps you meet CPA licensure requirements in Florida and most other states. Save time and money by pairing your Stetson University undergraduate degree with a MAcc degree. Qualified students can count up to two courses toward both degrees, creating a faster, more affordable path to graduation. This streamlined option maintains the rigor and quality of both programs while boosting the value of your education and career.
Why Accelerated Bachelor’s to MAcc at Stetson University?
The MAcc program is open to all Stetson undergrads, regardless of major, but it’s especially beneficial if you’re majoring or minoring in accounting. You can take up to two designated courses during undergrad that count toward your STEM-designated MAcc, helping you make the most of your scholarships and aid.
Courses are fully online and offered in eight-week terms, giving you the flexibility to balance work and school. By taking two courses at a time, you can complete the program in as little as 12 months. You’ll also receive one-on-one CPA counseling and free access to Becker CPA exam prep software, a $3,000 value.
