Admission Requirements

Before applying, please carefully read all requirements below.

  • It is required that you possess a 3-year or 4-year Bachelor’s or Master's degree in accounting or business administration (with at least 2 accounting courses) from an accredited college, university, or institute.
  • You must have earned a minimum cumulative overall GPA of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) or second division rank. A slightly lower GPA may be considered if you have a strong work history and/or chartered accounting certifications. Applicants with a GPA under 3.0 may be advised to pass the C.P.A. or A.C.C.A. to enhance their chances for success in acquiring a student visa.
  • You must possess a strong understanding of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), as well as Excel and Powerpoint software. You will be tested on your competency in these areas.

English proficiency

After passing the document stage of the application process, you will be interviewed to assess your English fluency and accounting knowledge. Here are the criteria used in this assessment:

  • You need to speak English well enough to be understood by the listener without difficulty. An accent is acceptable if it does not prevent the listener from easily understanding you. A few minor errors in speech are acceptable.
  • You need to understand English when it is spoken to you in a normal conversational speed.
  • You need to read and write English with little or no difficulty.
  • You need to know accounting terminology in English. It is strongly recommended that you study an American textbook in financial accounting.

If you do not yet have the level of English proficiency described above, you are encouraged to obtain intensive English training from Americans (or other native English-speaking instructors) in your home country. It is important that you select a school or teacher with a very good reputation for improving spoken English skills. Applicants who do not demonstrate English fluency may be required to take the TOEFL examination.

GMAT

You are not generally required to take the Graduate Management Aptitude Test (GMAT). However, we encourage applicants from other countries to take this test, because it may help in obtaining an F-1 visa from the U.S. visa officers. Information on the GMAT is available at www.mba.com.
