The MBA, Accounting and the 150 Credit Hour Requirement for CPA licensure

For those students interested in obtaining CPA licensure we offer a five-year course of study, which requires completion of the Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (four-year accounting major) along with the Master of Business Administration (one additional year).  The Clarion MBA program enables undergraduate accounting students to fulfill the 150 credit hour requirement for CPA licensure in Pennsylvania.  This flexibility provides Clarion students with the option of a four-year degree or a five-year undergraduate/graduate course of study.
