B.S./MASTER OF ACCOUNTANCYACCELERATED PROGRAMCombine your undergraduate and graduate accounting degrees to save time and money.

WHY ACCELERATE?

The Accelerated program is available to undergraduate accounting majors

and other majors completing the accounting cognate. It allows you to

“double count” up to four classes for undergraduate and graduate credit.

"Double counting" these classes allows you to:

Finish the MACC program in less time and save up to $6,336 in tuition

Use your undergraduate scholarships to pay for up to 40 percent of your MACC degree

Meet CPA license education requirements and earn a graduate degree in the same amount of time it takes to double major

Enjoy a reduced schedule in the MACC program, which will allow you to complete the CPA Exam by graduation

HOW IT WORKSTo participate in Accelerated and

“double count” courses, you must

be admitted to the MACC program,

confirm your enrollment, and submit

the required Accelerated forms each

semester you wish to “double count”

at least one course.

• Courses numbered 500

and higher can be taken

under Accelerated for both

undergraduate and graduate

credit. Courses numbered 700

and higher may be applied to

undergraduate elective options.

• Core 700-level MACC courses

can be taken as an undergraduate

student, accelerating your

timeline to complete your

MACC degree.

• Accelerated courses are not

limited to ACCT courses. Any

course that qualifies as a MACC

core or elective courses can

potentially be an Accelerated

course. This allows undergraduate

electives to “double count” as

MACC electives.

• Honors College Students:

Accelerated courses taken for

graduate credit may count as

honors sections. Please

discuss this with your honors

college advisor.

2. Meet with your undergraduate advisor to identify your remaining degree requirements.

3. Use the Course Planning Worksheet to map out your remaining undergraduate courses.

4. Meet with the MACC Director to discuss your Accelerated course plan.

Applying to the MACC Program:The MACC program’s application process is the same for all applicants – Accelerated or not.

• MACC application guidance: sc.edu/moore/macc_admit

• Accelerated application guidance, including deadlines: sc.edu/moore/macc_accelerate

• You must be admitted to the MACC program before you can “double count” courses.

• Your application deadline will relate to when you “double count” courses. Your

application to the MACC program, however, will be for a term AFTER you complete your

undergraduate degree.
