USC MACC Admissions Question! [#permalink] New post   06 Dec 2013, 02:22
Hi guys,

I'm applying to the USC MAcc program as a non-major and I know there is 3 prereq's for applying. I've taken the business related ones but not the Intro to Accounting course. It says they do not recommend CCs and Online courses. Is Cal State LA sufficient? Also, for UCLA Extension, I see that there is two parts to the Principles of Accounting course. Do I have to take both 1X A and B to fulfill this requirement?

Thanks

Did you ever happen to hear back on this question? I emailed a while back but never got a response. Was hoping to find an answer before the UCLA Extension drop date or I'd try one of USC's on-campus sessions. Tried some former students but none had gone through summer session and all started with Intermediate Accounting.

I assumed both parts are required (it's 2.0 units per course) but I was more concerned whether or not "Principles of Accounting" even counted as the prerequisite "Intro to Financial Accounting." For example, Glendale Community Colleges offers "Financial Accounting 101" and "Basic Accounting 110." Seems like the latter is for non-business majors and I'm wondering if the same is true for UCLA's extension course.

Alright, I gave it another shot at emailing MAcc admissions and they responded. You need 4.0 units for the prerequisite so I would assume you need to take both being that they are only 2.0 units.

Hey Blerta,

How is it going?
So it means 2 courses of the" Principles of Accounting" is equivalent to "Intro of Financial Accounting"?
I took "Intro of Accounting" when I was in college and it was 3 credits. Is it considered equivalent and enough?

you only have to take one class.

I already took Acct 1 before i found out about how they did not recommend community college courses. I emailed them asking if I should retake it at UCLA Ext and they said 'No, it's fine'. hope this was helpful

Hi,

I contacted them a few months ago and they said they accept UC Berkeley extension courses and those are only 3 credit semesters each I believe. I hope that helps.

Best,
