MSBA
Accounting students need 150 hours of academic credit to take the CPA. There are a number of ways an accounting student can meet this requirement. This link provides a few ideas.
One way to do this is to earn a Master's degree. If you are working and want to
continue your education at the same, the Master of Science in BusinessAnalytics at
JCBE is an easy and effective way to do so. Becoming an expert in analytics is
one of the best ways to land a great job and keep the job!

Another way is to get an internship with a company like
PwC.
