The accounting major offered by 新澳门六合彩开奖结果's听Richard A. Chaifetz School of Business听will help you develop strong technical and professional accounting skills, including communication, problem-solving and analytical skills.

Accounting is the language of business decision-making and is a primary means of organizational communication. The accountant鈥檚 role has changed substantially over the past decade. Today, accountants are actively involved in analyzing and interpreting financial data and work with other executives in decision-making and problem-solving activities.

Throughout my four years in the accounting program, I have been supported, motivated and challenged. The education I received has helped me become the best version of myself professionally, academically and spiritually." 鈦犫�擬icaela Lugo Romero, Class of 2023

SLU's accounting graduates have a long history of success on the CPA exam, with pass rates exceeding both the Missouri and national averages. Many of our graduates have passed all parts of this critical exam on their first attempt. The 2021 CPA Success Index, published in Accounting Today, ranked SLU 26 in the country among large accounting programs.

Students may also choose to pursue听in addition to their chosen major.

Curriculum Overview

SLU students may choose to graduate from the accounting program with the 120-credit bachelor's degree; however, those who plan to be licensed after taking the CPA examination are required to complete 150 college credits in most states.

Students may accumulate the 150 required credits in several ways:

• Complete 150 credits at the undergraduate level (often by pursuing a double major).
• Complete the 120-credit bachelor's degree and complete the 30-credit Master of Accounting degree sequentially.
• Or complete the听Integrated Accounting Program, which allows you to complete both the undergraduate and graduate degrees in accounting simultaneously.

The Department of Accounting also offers an听Accounting Scholars Program听for qualified incoming freshmen.

Internships/Student Organizations

Undergraduate accounting students have the opportunity to work a full-time, busy-season accounting internship in their final semester and remain on track for graduation. St. Louis' metropolitan location provides numerous internship opportunities, allowing students to gain career-related work experience while applying classroom knowledge to practice. Most internships are paid, and students may opt to earn academic credit. SLU's accounting students have interned with a wide variety of organizations, including public accounting firms, Fortune 500 companies, financial institutions and governmental agencies.听

The 新澳门六合彩开奖结果 chapter of Beta Alpha Psi, an international scholastic and professional honor society for financial information professionals, provides a vital link between students and the accounting profession. The chapter connects students with numerous guest speakers from various disciplines and industries each semester. In addition, membership offers students opportunities to establish networking relationships with potential employers. The chapter is regularly recognized for its continued excellence.

In a survey of SLU's most recent accounting graduates, 100% reported they were either employed or attending graduate school within six months of their graduation. They join a global network of nearly 20,000 alumni from the Richard A. Chaifetz School of Business. Accounting graduates from the Chaifetz School have earned employment with public accounting firms including the Big 4, as well as with prestigious organizations such as Accenture and Boeing.
