Looking for respectable Masters of Accounting programs...

-Worked 3 jobs while in college
-After graduation, spent 2 years in a Management Trainee program for a service company in South Florida
-Program used to mold trainees to serve General Manager or Director type functions within 6 years
-Facility's accounting/office manager
-Promoted after two years to Special Projects Manager

What are my chances of admission with such a low GPA?

Thanks,
Marco

You have a good test score, which can help balance GPA. It also makes a difference where you went, so a 2.8 at a good college would be better than a 3.0 at a crappy school. Also, if you had an upward trend in grades throughout your UG experience that would be a reasonable explanation ( matured in college, got serious, figured out how to study, etc.)
