Certified Public Accounting exam preparation
Many of our accounting students plan to take the Uniform CPA Examination, also known as the CPA exam, to become certified public accountants. Our advisers work with students to craft a personalized academic plan to ensure they’re on a successful track. The CPA exam requires a minimum of 150 semester hours, more than is required for our bachelor’s degree, so most students complete the remaining hours through graduate study.
We offer articulation agreements for graduate study with several colleges and universities; admission requirements vary. Proper planning allows student to meet graduation requirements and articulation requirements within the normal four years of study. Our accounting curriculum includes the requirements in ethics, research and analysis, and business writing to sit for the CPA exam in Illinois.
