<p>what are some of the top schools that offer a masters in accounting? how long does the program take? i know usc offers one and its process is just one year. would this be just as good or similar to an mba?</p>
<p>pretty sure the UT PPA program offers this. Basically you just go to school for 5 years instead of 4. It's a pretty prestigious program and the graduates get great job offers.</p>
<p>any more input?</p>
<p>Umich, Uva, USC, UIUC, UT are all top schools that offer masters in accounting degrees. Some schools let you get it in four years. Others require an extra year. (It's typically one extra year of studying, about 30 to 32 credits.)</p>
