Course Information

While all CPA's are accountants, not every accountant is a CPA. The in-depth study and continuing training it takes to become (and remain) a CPA prepares accountants with this credential to practice independently or in a wide variety of industries. At Seton Hill, you can earn all of the credit hours needed to sit for the CPA exam in Pennsylvania. You also have the option to move straight into our MBA Program, and complete all of the academic requirements necessary to become licensed, while earning two degrees at a reduced tuition rate.
