Distinct Tracks
Choose from assurance services, tax consulting, and financial transaction services (exclusive to Wake Forest), based on your career interests.
The Wake Forest Master of Science in Accountancy (MSA) degree program is one of the most highly ranked programs of its kind in the nation. Our program has a proven history of teaching excellence, unmatched CPA pass rate performance, robust career services, and a strong reputation among leading firms which enables us to consistently achieve nearly 100% employment at graduation.
The MSA program is a two-semester, 30-credit hour masters degree program that begins each summer and offers structured CPA Exam prep at the conclusion of the spring semester, with graduation in May.
We also offer an optional third semester that includes the opportunity to pursue a paid internship — a major benefit of the Wake Forest MSA program. This nine-week paid position provides real-world experience during the busy season. This is great for those who enter the program without previous internship experience, or those who want to gain additional experience with a company prior to accepting a full-time offer.
