Accounting students at Montclair State

Accounting (Combined BS/MS)


This 5-year degree program combines our BS and MS in Accounting programs and prepares students to become Certified Public Accountants (CPA). Our Accounting program, accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), helps students develop strong, comprehensive functional and technical skills and provides a specialized, in-depth understanding of the complexities of current accounting, auditing, and tax practice. Classroom learning is immediately transferrable to the job and prepares students to sit for the New Jersey CPA examination. The program also helps fulfill the required 150 credit hours of study needed to become licensed in New Jersey.
To better prepare students for the CPA exam, the Department of Accounting and Finance offers a CPA Review Course at no additional cost to graduating seniors. Please contact cpareviewcourse@gener8co.com with questions.

A Combined Degree program enables undergraduate students to enroll in graduate courses in their senior year, which can be counted towards the completion of both their Bachelor’s and Master’s degree requirements.  The ability to take these “swing courses” allows students to earn both their Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in a shortened period of time, typically within five years.
