Qualifications
Candidates are
evaluated based on academic history, GMAT results, evidence of motivation and
aptitude for graduate-level work, and professional experience.
Candidates must have completed a baccalaureate degree at a college or
university accredited by an organization subscribing to established national
accreditation standards. The degree must include, or be supplemented by,
courses that provide a solid foundation in accounting and business. In general,
this would require, at a minimum, 18 semester hours in accounting (to include
financial reporting, managerial accounting, taxation, and auditing), and 24
semester hours in business related courses (to include information systems,
economics, business statistics, finance, management, and marketing) completed
at the undergraduate level.
