Admission to the Master of Accountancy (MACC) program is granted to applicants who show high promise of success in postgraduate business study.

Students who graduated with their bachelor's degree in accountancy or accounting are able to add 30 hours of accounting research and study, allowing them to site for the CPA exam. The program is specifically structured to teach tax codes specific to Kansas and the United States.

MACC Admission Requirements

To be admitted to the MACC program, an applicant must:

  • Have an undergraduate degree in accounting, or the functional equivalent of an undergraduate degree in accounting. This includes twenty-seven hours of undergraduate accounting beyond the sophomore level.
  • An overall Grade Point Average of 3.20 on a 4.00 scale.
  • A grade of "B" (3.00) or better in all undergraduate accounting courses.
  • A satisfactory score on the Graduate Management Admissions Test (www.gmac.com). A score is deemed satisfactory if the applicant's overall score, and each of the individual test section scores, are in the 25th percentile or higher.

GMAT Exemption

Please note, the GMAT exam may only be waived if a student received a 3.2 out of a 4.0 GPA from an AACSB-accredited school, and received a grade of "B" (3.0) or better in all undergraduate accounting classes.
