The MS in Accounting prepares students for a career in accounting, providing 33 credits of graduate study beyond the completion of the bachelor’s degree in business at New Paltz or its equivalent. It is registered with the New York State Education Department as a 150-credit licensure-qualifying program, which means that students earning this degree will have met the educational requirements needed to sit for the CPA examination in New York (CPA-150 prior to August 1, 2027, or CPA-150E on or after August 1, 2027). Details about the requirements for obtaining a CPA license in New York State can be found at https://www.op.nysed.gov/certified-public-accountants. Students interested in careers in public accounting need to pursue the CPA designation.
