Take the Next Step in Your Accounting Career

The Master of Science in Accounting (MSA) prepares you to enhance your skills and competencies that will support you professionally throughout your career. The MSA degree, along with the appropriate undergraduate prerequisite work, also satisfies the education requirements to become a licensed CPA in the state of Florida. If your career plans include pursuing state-regulated professional licensure or certification in your chosen field, it is important to know the credentialing requirements of the state in which you hope to practice.

Within this program, you’ll have the opportunity to choose from 3 tracks available — an opportunity to align both your passion and career trajectory. Throughout your studies, learn from renowned faculty who provide you with hands-on experience through cases and research projects that involve independent work outside of the classroom. The results of independent research activity are presented in either a written report or case analysis or oral presentation.

Our approach to ensuring a successful classroom environment helps encourage students, like you, toward life-long learning. Upon graduating, you’ll be ready to advance your current career or start a new path as a professional accountant or consultant in the public accounting industry, financial institutions, government, and nonprofit organizations.

The full language of the UCF Admissions Regulations for Graduate Students can be found at regulations.ucf.edu/chapter2.asp (UCF-2,003, UCF 2.0031, UCF 2.009).

International students, except those who are from countries where English is the only official language, those who have earned a degree from an accredited US college or university recognized by UCF, or those who have earned a degree from a country where English is the only official language or a university at which English is the only official language of instruction, are required to submit a score on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) before they can be admitted to the university. Although we prefer the TOEFL, we will also accept the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) scores. Students who are non-native speakers of English (and do not have a degree from a U.S. institution) must pass the English Speaking test administered by the UCF English Institute before they will be permitted to teach as a Graduate Teaching Associate or Graduate Teaching Assistant.

 

A TOEFL computer-based score of 220 or 80 on the internet-based TOEFL (or equivalent score on the paper-based test) or 6.5 on the IELTS is required unless otherwise specified by the program. The list below includes programs that have determined a minimum required TOEFL or IELTS score higher than the university requirement.
