The Cook School’s integrated B.S.B.A./MACC offering is a five-year program which allows students to complete both the B.S.B.A. degree with a concentration in Accounting and the MACC degree while maximizing University and outside financial aid. Both degrees are awarded upon completion of 150 hours according to University and Business School degree requirements.
