MSA 12-Month Program Option

MSA 12-Month Program Option

We offer an accelerated 12-month MSA Fast Track program. This program is designed exclusively for high-achieving UCCS undergraduate accounting students. Students from other universities may apply, although pre-requisite requirements may extend the length of their program beyond 12 months.

UCCS seniors who have satisfied the undergraduate residence requirements and who need no more than 6 semester hours to meet their requirements for an undergraduate degree may be admitted to the MSA program. They must meet regular admissions criteria and submit a completed application by the published deadline. Undergraduate senior admits must complete their final undergraduate courses.

A sample 12-month schedule for students starting in the fall semester is shown below:
