Program details

Overview

This post-baccalaureate certificate in accounting is an 18-credit option from the Dolan School of Business. Students complete it in two semesters through online or hybrid courses, and the format fits people who are already employed. It is meant for adults who want to pick up new job skills, strengthen what they know about accounting, or understand the basics of accounting and finance as they apply to small companies. Since it demands less time than a full degree program, it works as a manageable way to add business capability without leaving a current job. Learners study within the same school that runs the well-regarded master's program in accounting. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and new cohorts begin in September, January and May. Tuition is billed per credit, and the published estimate uses the 2026-27 rate without fees or later increases. Questions can go to the graduate admission office.
