这所学校曾经给我回复:“The MSA program requires 30 units (10 courses) beyond baccalaureate degree. Since you have undergraduate degree in other than accounting, you will be required to take 24 units (6 ) preparatory courses. You will also need to take 2 courses: introduction to information systems & applications (ISDS265) and math (MATH135). Additional courses may be required given your selection of different courses. You may be qualified to waive up to 12 units (4 courses). It takes about 1-3 years on average to complete the MSA program. In your case, given your non-accounting background, it probably take 2.5-3 years to complete all the coursework required for the MSA. The MSA program equips you with the accounting and business credits required to sign up for the CPA exam and, of course, the knowledge.
