As an MMPA student, you gain access to top accounting courses and professors, getting you on the path to CPA designation, regardless of your educational background.


The Two Year MMPA is a master’s level fast track to rewarding careers in professional accounting, finance, and the broader business world. Open to both domestic and international students, this program can help students with any 4-year undergraduate degree make the jump into management.

 

3-month foundation term

For students with a non-business undergraduate degree, the 2-Year Plus Foundation Term program is a powerful opportunity to climb into leadership roles by pairing their previous studies with robust business and accounting capabilities. This 27-month program requires students to complete a 3-month foundation term to ensure they have a solid introduction to the topics covered in the program. To be eligible for the Two Year MMPA without needing to complete the 3-month Foundation Term, students must achieve Advanced Standing. Please see advanced standing details below.
