Overview

The Master of Professional Accounting (MPAcc) combines a graduate degree with a pathway to the Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation, accredited by CPA Ontario.

Admission requires a four-year honours bachelor's degree with a minimum 73% average from the final two years of study, completion of the CPA Preparatory Courses with at least 60% in each, and a minimum 70% average across the CPA Core Prerequisite Courses.
