Walden University

+

In today's increasingly complex and diverse business world, accounting professionals need a broad knowledge of accounting combined with technical and functional expertise. Walden's B.S. in Accounting program is designed to give you a strong foundation in accounting–both in theory and practical application–to help prepare you to advance your career and contribute to your organization.

Our program takes a unique approach that provides you with an introduction to how accounting tools are used in the context of the larger business environment. Then you will learn the knowledge and skills to design, manipulate, and implement accounting products. This intuitive approach to learning allows you to view accounting's role as more than a series of unrelated activities and details, and gives you insight into organizational and ethical issues.

The curriculum is aligned with the national standards set by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), teaching critical content for those students who may wish to continue on to become a Certified Public Accountant (CPA).*

*Most states require individuals to complete 150 semester hours in certain subject areas in order to be eligible to sit for the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam and/or obtain a CPA license. Walden's B.S. in Accounting can help graduates progress toward meeting those requirements by offering 120 credit hours that include upper level courses in topics such as financial accounting, auditing, taxation, and management accounting. For information on the educational requirements for your state, refer to the state's Board of Accountancy or related agency.

Walden University can make no representation, warranty, guarantee, or commitment that successful completion of a Walden program, or coursework for credit within a program, will make a graduate eligible to sit for a licensure exam or to obtain state licensure.

This program was developed to reflect the content requirements of certain states by providing graduate-level courses in topics such as financial accounting, auditing, taxation, and managerial accounting. Individuals seeking to become CPAs should review the educational requirements for their state to ensure the content requirements are being met. For more information, refer to the state's Board of Accountancy or related agency. Walden enrollment advisors can provide guidance on CPA requirements, however, it remains the individual's responsibility to understand and comply with all exam and licensing requirements. Walden makes no representation or guarantee that completion of Walden coursework or programs will permit an individual to sit for the CPA exam or obtain a CPA license. Please speak with an Enrollment Advisor for additional guidance.
