Bachelor of Science (BS) in Accounting
The accounting profession demands a high degree of technical training, similar to the professions of architecture, law, engineering and medicine, and a broad knowledge of the fundamentals of economics and business with a commitment to public well-being. Career opportunities in accounting include the public, corporate, government, nonprofit and healthcare sectors. The undergraduate program in accountancy is designed to prepare students for entrance into these careers and to provide a foundation for the examination to become a CPA or to achieve other professional certifications. Each state Board of Accountancy has its own eligibility requirements for taking the CPA exam. Students pursuing a BS in Accounting should consult the Board of Accountancy website for the state in which they plan to sit for the CPA examination in order to determine specific course requirements.
As part of the sequence of courses leading to the BS in Accounting offered through Weatherhead, the student takes required and elective courses in related fields of banking and finance, economics, marketing, organizational behavior and operations.

Students pursuing the BS in Accounting are advised to take the two introductory classes, ACCT 100 Foundations of Accounting I and ACCT 200 Foundations of Accounting II, and ACCT 106 Spreadsheet Basics for Business and Non-Business Majors, as early as possible. In addition, students are advised to take MGMT 201 Contemporary Business and Communication as early as possible and ORBH 250 Leading People (LEAD I) in the second year.
Twelve credit hours of accounting coursework taken at another accredited institution may be considered for transfer toward the BS in Accounting, although transfer credit for courses must be approved by the Accountancy Department. Each student is required to consult with an advisor in the Office of Undergraduate and Integrated Study Programs at Weatherhead.
For more information, contact Tiffany Schwendeman, assistant dean of undergraduate and integrated study programs, at 216.368.2058.
Integrated Study Program in Accountancy
Undergraduate students at Case Western Reserve University have the unique opportunity to pursue both the Bachelor of Arts (BA) or Bachelor of Science (BS) and the Master of Accountancy through the BA/BS and Master of Accountancy Integrated Study Program. The Integrated Study program allows students to complete both degrees in four or five years. For students majoring in accounting, both degrees are most commonly completed in four-and-a-half years or nine academic semesters. All Case Western students must apply for and be admitted to the MAcc program, although certain requirements are waived, such as the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) or the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE). Because of the necessity for proper planning of coursework, undergraduate students are strongly encouraged to apply for the MAcc in their junior year.
The Integrated Study program is strongly recommended for those individuals planning to obtain professional certification as a certified public accountant (CPA). CPA candidates must have completed 150 semester hours of study at the university level in order to qualify to sit for the CPA examination. The integrated program saves qualified students both time and money while equipping students with the skills and knowledge attractive to top accounting firms.
For more information, contact Tiffany Schwendeman, assistant dean of undergraduate and integrated study programs, at 216.368.2058.
Early Admission to the Integrated Study Program in Accountancy
Each year, approximately 10 to 15 exceptionally well-qualified high school seniors who plan to pursue careers in accountancy will be offered Early Admission to the Integrated Study Program in Accountancy at Case Western Reserve University. Early admits receive a conditional commitment of admission to the Weatherhead School of Management Master of Accountancy program and a scholarship package covering a minimum of 50% of an academic year’s tuition cost to be honored when students formally enroll as a graduate student. Students are required to maintain a minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.2 overall and in accountancy courses. Those who achieve higher grade point averages will be eligible for greater scholarship amounts.
Practicum Program
The practicum program is a planned, structured, supervised workplace experience at an approved "site" organization. The practicum is an experiential learning arrangement between the student, the employer and the practicum adviser in conjunction with the Office of Post-Graduate Planning and Experiential Education. Employers provide appropriate supervision and work-related learning while the practicum adviser guides and evaluates the student's experience. The primary goal of this active learning experience is the intellectual, personal and professional growth of the student in an area related to the student's academic goals. The practicum should provide the student with new skills, insights and experiences that are transferable to the academic setting.
Students apply to the Office of Post-Graduate Planning and Experiential Education in the semester preceding the work assignment and may participate in up to two practicums. All practicums developed through the University Career Center must be taken for transcript notation, and students must have a faculty member serve as a practicum advisor. If a student elects to work in an internship/practicum without enrolling in the course for academic notation, he or she will not have the benefits of full-time student status. Additionally, he or she will not represent the practicum program in any official capacity.

Weatherhead’s Integrated Study Programs allow undergraduate students the unique opportunity to pursue a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree at the same time, completing both degrees in as little as four years. These programs are open to all Case Western undergraduates, regardless of major, but certain prerequisite courses may be required in order to complete the master’s degree. Each program has its own set of admission criteria, course timelines and considerations, so it is best to speak with a program representative as early as possible.
