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 BKD LLP, Huth Thompson, Central Soya,
Ernst & Young LLP, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Somerset CPA's 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: Many of our accounting students have entry-level positions lined up well before the end of their graduation year. |
