60 SEMESTER CREDITS REQUIRED FOR GRADUATION

NOTE: Accounting majors must achieve a minimum of a C average in Financial Accounting I, Financial Accounting II, and Managerial Accounting in order to enroll in Intermediate Accounting I.

Business Electives must be selected from the Larry L. Luing School of Business courses.

Graduates of Berkeley College Accounting programs do not automatically become Certified Public Accountants (CPA), and such programs are not specifically intended to prepare graduates for the CPA examination. CPA requirements vary by jurisdiction. Generally, to be licensed as a CPA an applicant must complete a combination of specified educational and/or experience requirements, demonstrate good moral character (which may include an absence of criminal convictions), and pass a CPA examination. Applicants for whom such requirements may be matters of concern are strongly advised to contact an Admissions Associate prior to enrolling in an accounting program.


Under certain circumstances the need to take developmental College Skills courses may lengthen the time required to complete the student’s program, and may result in increased costs to a student.

Berkeley College reserves the right to add, discontinue, or modify its programs and policies at anytime.
