Corso di Laurea in Contabilità

Drury’s Accounting major requires 71 credit hours of coursework in addition to your Drury Fusion requirements. If a student pursues an accounting major only, they will graduate with around 124-130 hours. It is possible to complete this path in 4 years.

Students preferring to work for public accounting firms after graduation often choose to also complete the Uniform Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam. Students may take the exam after completing certain coursework and 120 college-credit hours. However, the certification is not awarded until a student has completed a total of 150 credit hours.

Drury’s accounting major provides all the necessary accounting and business-related requirements to take the CPA exam. The remaining credit hours can be achieved with any other elective classes to reach 150 hours. Many students pursue additional majors and graduate with 150+ credit hours (depending on the majors chosen). This would take 4.5 – 5 years or more to complete. Other students choose to complete the accounting degree and pursue a Masters of Business Administration at Drury University. Drury’s MBA 2-year program is 30 hours. Combined with the accounting degree this would allow a student to meet the 150-hour requirement for full certification. This path would take 6 years to complete and would provide the student with both a bachelor’s and master’s degree.
