Utah State University - Master of Accounting

The Jon M. Huntsman School of Business offers a MAcc program that requires 30 credit hours to complete, and half the program will be tailored to a concentration selected by the student: Personal Financial Planning, Professional Accountancy, or Taxation. Core courses that all students will take include Accounting for Complex and Multinational Companies, Management of Database Systems, and Business Law and Professional Responsibilities. Graduates from the program have passed the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam with a 74.1 percent success rate in the first attempt, and they have also found opportunities at the Big Four accounting firms.

Students pursuing the Bachelor's degree at Utah State do have the ability to enroll in the Professional Accounting Program, which accelerates the process by taking some graduate courses in their senior year. Admission requirements for the program include holding an undergraduate degree with at least a 3.0 GPA over the last 60 credit hours from the program and GMAT scores being at the 50th percentile or better. Applicants can get a GMAT waiver if they had a 3.5 cumulative GPA in their Bachelor's degree at Utah State or 3.7 cumulative GPA in their accounting-related undergraduate degree from an accredited university.

Brigham Young University - Master of Accountancy

The Marriott School of Management provides two paths for their MAcc program - professional and tax-based. Both programs require 36 credit hours to complete and begin annually in the fall. While the program is geared toward undergraduates within an accounting discipline, graduates from other accredited universities that have studied in the field can complete the program in under two years. Around 160 students are administered into the program each year, and requirements include holding a 3.0 cumulative GPA in their undergraduate degree and submitting GMAT scores.

Example courses that students will take in their program options include Advanced Taxation, Accounting Data Analytics, Advanced Financial Statement Auditing, and Special Problems in Federal Taxation. Some courses are only available within specific semesters. Around 72.6 percent of students that have applied to the program have been admitted over the last five years, and the average grade these students have held is approximately 3.7 GPA.
