<p>Are you allowed to take introductory accounting (managerial and financial accounting) in your freshman yr at UCLA?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>what's the course number?</p>
<p>if it is an intro course through the college of letters and science, of course you can take it (assuming it has no prereqs you haven't fulfilled)</p>
<p>However, if you're looking at a course through the Anderson school, then no - Anderson is a graduate school only.</p>
<p>Thanks, Icarus.
I don't know the course number by the way.
So, you can take an intro accounting course even in your freshman yr, right?
any website i can go and find info for it?</p>
<p>The Biz-Econ intro courses such as Management 100 (which I believe is what the OP was referring to) ARE offered through the anderson school. And yes, you can take it first year. </p>
<p>The Biz-Econ website describes the management portion of the major as this:
"Through classes at the Anderson Graduate School, to introduce students to the basic principles of accounting and finance and to provide an opportunity for those who wish to complete course preparation for the CPA exam. "</p>
<p>Also, here's the description of Management 100 as given in the registrar's course listing:</p>
<p>MGMT 100. Introduction to Financial Accounting</p>
<p>Course Description: Lecture, four hours; discussion, one hour. Introduction to principal financial statements -- balance sheet, income statement, and statement of cash flows. Designed to develop ability to prepare, interpret, and use financial statements, as well as to understand underlying system that produces them. Business operations from management perspective. P/NP or letter grading.</p>
<p>ah - good point about the 100-series classes. I tend not to think of those as being offered through Anderson because they are taken by undergrads. But you're right, they are through the Anderson school - sorry for the confusion, if any.</p>
<p>Thanks, Brandnew 2.
So you can take your first yr even though you're a pre-BizEcon, right?
Thanks!</p>
<p>Oh, what about managerial accounting?
is it automatically included in financial accounting? or is there a different course just for that?</p>
<p>That is the only management course that is required as a prerequisite for the bus-econ major and the accounting minor. All the other management courses are taken only after you're officially in the major/minor (usually 3rd year). It used to be split up into two courses, Management 1A and 1B, but has since be combined. That's the best answer I can give.</p>
