The MS in Accounting Program at the University of Connecticut School of Business welcomed over a hundred new students last week. This new class converged on Storrs for the week- in-residence class, “Understanding the Responsibilities of an Accounting Professional,” and infused the campus with their enthusiasm and learning. The students left excited about starting summer classes next week.

The popularity of this program reflects the growing reputation and demand for this acclaimed online program. Out of 133 admitted for the current semester, 123 accepted the admission offers with four deferring until next year. The incoming class represents 44 different undergraduate universities from 17 states and the country of Lebanon. 54% of the students come from undergraduate programs other than UConn.

The School of Business would like to extend congratulations to the Accounting Department, especially Andy Rosman, Marg Sweeney and Linda Petrofsky, for recruiting another outstanding MS in Accounting Program class.
