The Master of Science (MS) in Accounting is a 30-credit graduate program tailored for accounting undergraduates seeking higher-level business and accounting knowledge
Accounting involves documenting, categorizing, and consolidating monetary transactions.
Accountants and auditors ensure organizational efficiency, maintain precise public records, and guarantee timely tax payments. They interpret and share financial data for businesses, individuals, and government agencies at all levels.
Thriving in accounting demands problem-solving abilities, curiosity, analytical skills, flexibility, and practical judgment rather than advanced math skills. If these strengths match your capabilities, pursuing an accounting degree could be your ideal career path.
Baccalaureate Degree: The applicant must provide an official transcript showing that a bachelor’s degree was awarded by an accredited college or university. If you are a UofM undergraduate student applying to Graduate School at UofM, you do not need to request that an official transcript be sent to Graduate Admissions. This office has access to your transcript. In addition, transcripts from any other college or university attended may be requested. Only transcripts received directly from an issuing institution are considered official. Personal copies are not acceptable as official documents.
GPA: The applicant must have earned an acceptable grade point average, typically a minimum of 2.5 on a scale of 4.0, but departments may make exceptions for students whose overall GPA does not adequately reflect their ability to succeed in their chosen field.
