INFORMATION CONCERNING PATTERSON SCHOOL OF ACCOUNTANCY REQUIREMENTS:
To qualify for the B.Accy., a student must earn a minimum grade‐point average of 2.0 on the cumulative hours attempted at the university and a minimum grade‐point average of 2.0 on 300‐level or above accountancy courses completed through the university and must comply with general university requirements for graduation.
Many students will take 12 hours during the spring semester of senior year while interning. If you do this you will need to move the course for minor/elective to a different semester.
INFORMATION CONCERNING GENERAL RULES, REGULATIONS AND MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
An overall 2.0 GPA or higher is required on all work attempted at UM, all college work attempted at any institution of higher learning (UM and transfer work), and all coursework submitted toward the degree.
At least 25% of the hours required for an undergraduate degree must be taken in residence, with at least 12 of the last 21 credit hours
completed at UM.
In addition, at least 30 semester hours of residence credit must be taken in the school or college recommending the degree.
The limit on the acceptance of credit from a junior or community college is one‐half the total requirements for a degree.
