Husson Accounting majors begin their study of accounting in their very first year, and then progress through a series of advanced courses that provide in-depth exposure to all aspects of the profession. Faculty are experienced practitioners who combine practical knowledge with up-to-date theory in their teaching. Small class sizes ensure that students receive the attention they need to do their best. These unique aspects of the Husson Accounting programs produce graduates who are extremely well-trained and ready to enter the profession.
Requirements for Accounting Majors
All Accounting majors must earn an overall 2.0 cumulative grade-point average as well as a 2.0 overall in their AC prefix courses. In addition, transfer students must complete a minimum of 15 credit hours in AC prefix courses at Husson.
The School of Accounting requires that all students, prior to graduation, complete 10 hours* of community service. This service may be in support of school, college, or university activities, including, but not limited to, Open Houses, Accepted Student Days, recruiting events, group visits, and fundraising events. Hours in support of off campus community efforts can also count toward the ten hours including, but not limited to, food bank efforts, clean up campaigns, and neighborhood activities. (*Note: due to the disruption of Covid which had a significant impact on the early college years of the class of 2024, only 5 hours will be required for students graduating in 2024. The 10 hour requirement will be in place for 2025 graduates and beyond.)
