Certifications
Many graduates want to obtain a professional certification. The Certified
Public Accountant (CPA) certificate is the best known of these. Effective July
1, 2006, students taking the CPA exam in Virginia will have to meet the 150-hour
requirement. However, most states already require students to meet the 150-hour
requirement. Students should discuss with their advisor the options that the
Department of Accounting has for meeting this requirement.
One option is to
enroll in one of the two NSU dual degree programs. A student will be able to
pursue degrees in accounting and business (with a concentration in information
management or finance). Each program has a 30-semester hour curriculum for the
5th year. The student would receive two diplomas, and both degrees will appear
on the students permanent academic record. Please see a faculty advisor or the
department head for more information.
In addition to the CPA exam, graduates of
the program may also take the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) exam,
Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) exam, Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA)
exam and others. Students interested in taking one of these exams are encouraged
to talk to an advisor during their junior year to determine the necessary
requirements for taking the exam.
