The next deadline that we will be dealing with here at the GSB is the March 1 application deadline for the Master of Accountancy.
The Walton College's Master of Accountancy (MAcc) is a two-semester, 30-hour program that begins in August. The admissions committee pays close attention to the GMAT score, GPA, Honors classes, extracurricular activities, and leadership roles. If an applicant scores 600+ on the GMAT and has a 3.2+ GPA, chances of admission are very good. Last year the department received approximately 60 applications and enrolled 30. If you complete the Walton College's MAcc, you are eligible to sit for the CPA exam in the state of Arkansas.
There are graduate assistantships (GA) available. Tuition is waived and a stipend of $2500 each semester is awarded in exchange for working 15 hours a week. All admitted students are automatically considered for a GA; no separate application is needed. The Accounting Department is also very fortunate to have several scholarship opportunities for the MAcc students. At the time a student receives their offer of admission, funding offers are included.
Be sure to submit all application materials by March 1 for full consideration for admission and funding.
