Foster's Master of Science in Taxation equips accounting professionals with top-tier education, ethical foundations, creative problem-solving abilities, and outstanding verbal and written communication skills. The program also readies graduates for advanced taxation careers, where economic choices require thorough understanding of tax laws and their implications. As the Pacific Northwest's first graduate program specializing in taxation, our MST offers full-time coursework running from late September to early June. This curriculum prepares students for the demands and prospects of the accounting field while fulfilling Washington State's additional credit requirements for CPA exam eligibility.
We review each prospective student’s undergraduate academic bachelor degree work, taking note of the difficulty of the curriculum and the scholastic quality of the school attended. We also consider the applicant’s post baccalaureate academic experience. Your bachelor degree must be completed by the September of the year in which you wish to start the MPAcc Program. Grades are considered at the time of application. When you report your last two years of grades on your application, this is a university requirement and does not have to be exact. New grades will only be considered for satisfying class and degree requirements but will not be added to the application GPA.
