K-STATE College of Business Administration
Majoring in Accounting
Program Design
The accounting program at K-State has been designed assuming that the majority of our qualified students will pursue our fifth-year master's degree program. However, we do realize that many students may not qualify or want to stay in the master's program.

Students completing only the undergraduate portion of the five-year program should be able to compete effectively with graduates of other four-year programs, but may not have the same opportunities as graduates of a five-year (150-hour) program.

Courses
As a fully accredited school, we comply with certain standards that relate to the quality of the faculty and the curriculum. As a member of the AACSB, we are required to divide our curriculum between courses inside and outside the CBA, with about half the courses in each category. Most of the non-business courses are taken during a student's freshmen and sophomore years, and most of the business courses are taken in the junior and senior years.

Scholarships
The Department of Accounting has awarded $70,000-$84,000 of scholarships each year for several years. Find out more about accounting scholarships.
