Business Administration

<p>Hi,
I was wondering if anyone could give input on Irvine's Business Administration program. I am looking to apply with an Accounting concentration, and I am also a prospective transfer from a community college in California.
I know it is a relatively new program, just a few years old, but I was wondering if anyone would be able to give feedback on it. Whether you graduated from the program, or are currently in it, or looking to be in it please share the details.
Thanks!</p>

<p>if you’re worried about the legitimacy of the program, then don’t be.</p>

<p>Just know that you will need to act to make yourself eligible for CPA licensure such as taking a few courses elsewhere (there are a number of CC classes out there online) and you need 150/225 units now.</p>

<p>The requirements are set to go up(slightly) again in 2017 so be prepared.</p>

<p>This is true for any school.</p>

<p>With so much said, accounting is not the end all be all of professions. My best friend is starting at PWC after graduation and I’m off to other ventures. I am eligible to sit for the CPA. It’s not for me though, I’m more into finance and consulting.</p>
