Description
// Overview Curriculum Roadmap Courses Candidates must be pursing a Canisius BS in Accounting to be eligible for this program. The Master Business Administration in Accounting (150 hour program) meets the NYS educational requirement for 150 hours for certification as a NYS CPA. Under present education requirements of the State of New York, students are eligible to sit for the NYS CPA examination upon completion of the 120 hour program (BS in Accounting) with an Auditing course. Students must have 150 hours to secure the educational requirements for NYS CPA Licensure. In their senior year, students will start taking classes at the MBA level. After completing the requirements for the BS in Accounting, with a minimum QPA of 2.0 in all courses and the required 2.0 in accounting/business law courses, students will start the graduate portion of their program (MBA). Students will be graduate students and pay student graduate tuition rates, for at least 24 credit hours. Graduate tuition is charged per credit hour. Students will receive both their BS degree and MBA degree at the completion of their 5th year when all requirements have been fulfilled for both the BS and MBA. Admission Requirements Students are admitted into the BS/MBA program as Freshman. In their junior year, students who maintain a 2.5 GPA overall for all Accounting Courses and a 2.8 Overall GPA can AUTOMATICALLY continue in the BS/MBA. Students who do not meet that criteria will be evaluated on a case by case basis and may have additional requirements, including the GMAT. Student continuing in the BS/MBA will start taking graduate classes in their senior year. Students not wishing to purse the BS/MBA should have a conversation with an advisor on their options. Registration for Courses in the MBA Students continuing in the BS/MBA will be contacted by the Graduate Business Office in the spring semester of their junior year to register as seniors in graduate courses. Students will still secure advising for the courses to complete in fall of their senior year. Students must take the following courses in their senior year: Accounting requirements: ACC 415 (fall only) ACC 425 (fall only) ACC 427 (spring only) Business requirements: MGT 325 ( fall or spring) Students with advanced standing may be able to add the following course to their senior year: ACC 721 (fall only) ACC 716 (spring only) Please note, D grades are not awarded at the graduate level. Academic Standing For the undergraduate portion of the MBA 150 hour program students should review the probationary and dismissal policies in the undergraduate catalog for BS/BA candidates. For the graduate portion of the program students must have CGPA of 2.5 to graduate. A student is placed on academic probation if: 1. After completion of six hours of course work, the student’s cumulative grade point average is 2.0 or lower, 2. Any time after completion of nine or more hours of course work, the cumulative grade point average is below a 2.5 or lower. A student may be dismissed from the program if: 1. After completion of six hours of course work, subsequent to being placed on academic probation, the cumulative grade point average is less than 2.0. 2. After completion of at least 18 hours of course work, the cumulative grade point average is less than 2.5. A student may be dismissed without having been placed on probation first. Curriculum An Ignatian Foundation All undergraduate students must complete either the Canisius Core Curriculum or the All-College Honors Curriculum . Many schools refer to their college-wide undergraduate requirements as "general education" requirements. We believe that the core curriculum and the honors curriculum are more than a series of required classes; they provide the basis for a Jesuit education both with content and with required knowledge and skills attributes that are central to our mission. Free Electives Students may graduate with a bachelor's degree with more but not less than 120 credit hours. Free electives are courses in addition to the Canisius Core Curriculum or All-College Honors Curriculum and
