以下是引用watdahell在2008-3-3 21:36:00的发言: I actually have a few questions about the MAS program. As I still have a few days to make up my mind, I want to know that I am making the right decision if I do decide to go.
1) How has the placement record been for international students in the MAS program? it sounds as if they receive no support at all from the directors while the MSA students receive a lot of support. 2) Are they really less prepared for the CPA exam to the point that the CPA prep course alone is insufficient to allow them to acquire the knowledge needed to pass the exams? 3) is it possible for MAS students to attend MSA events (considering we are international students too)?
I realize you are a MSA student, but I bet you know the situation inside out at that school. Your input is greatly appreciated.
1) Sorry i do not know the placement for MAS. I do not know what kind of support they have. But i am sure they do have some. 2)as most of the mas students have had the US GAAP accounting background already, the mas program does not repeat that. the CPA review course alone covers enough for cpa exams. but for msa program, the cpa review is the second time, it helps you be more familiar with the material. 3)no so much possibilities, to my knowledge. |
