Accounting Major
Accounting majors designing an Individual Program of Study that anticipates graduate study in accounting may wish to emphasize interdisciplinary study at the undergraduate level and specialized accounting study at the graduate level. An Individual Program of Study for accounting majors not intending to pursue significant graduate study in accounting may emphasize specialization in accounting at the undergraduate level and include accounting courses as an alternative to a concentration in business. In many states, including Virginia, the requirements governing the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation are different for determining eligibility to sit for the CPA Exam as opposed to qualifying for a license. These requirements are determined by state laws and are subject to revision; to obtain the most current information consult the appropriate state agency.
