Why Accounting at Saint Joseph's College?
Personal attention: You will receive the kind of personal attention and guidance in your studies and career search that is unmatched at larger institutions.
Great flexibility: Faculty advisers work with you to tailor your program schedule when necessary. Many CPA-bound students complete the state's 150-credit requirement in 4.5 years. With internships and summer work, some students complete the same requirements in the conventional 4 years.
Skills, skills, skills: Business studies at SJC are intentionally designed around key critical skills employers are clamoring for.
You start early: Most accounting majors have completed six courses (18 credits) of their requirements by the end of their freshman year.
Internships: At places near and far, such as Icon Transportation, Central Soya, Ernst & Young, and Katz Sappler & Miller.
Strong networking: An extensive alumni network throughout the US, but especially concentrated in Indiana and Illinois, means you are easily connected to professionals.
Great career opportunities: Most of our accounting students have entry-level positions lined up well before the end of their graduation year. |
