Master in accounting will add to you if you want to work in 1.academic field 2.govermental sector (you will prefered in promotions) 3.audit field (it will add to you in promotions beside the experience) 4. Some private sectors will choose youbbecouse your highdegree in accounting beside the experience
I have an undergrad in social science, and was recently accepted to a Masters in Accounting program at one of the best business schools on the East Coast!
@@ThatGuy-ns8de how’s that going so far? I have an undergrad in Econ and just got accepted to NYU MS in accounting. Would you suggest I go with it? Early 30s male, 6 years exp in financial services.
@@Temuulen3 thinking of doing it too. 30yr old and been working in Big 4 for 1 yr now. I work in IT audit though and want to switch to a more traditional accounting route out of big 4 and I think the masters in accounting might help.
I was worrying about this recently. I followed a similar path to you, meaning I got a second bachelor's in accounting to meet the cpa requirements and started my career in big 4.... but I was wondering would not having a masters hold me back in the future if I decide to switch to industry? Great videos by the way! You're a really good speaker and it's nice to have these straight to the point videos.
If you were going for the same job with someone who has a masters and you both have CPA’s , who do you think they would choose? Yes at a big 4, but most people only stay at a big 4 for 2 years. Masters degrees do matter.
Thank you for this! I second this! I just finished a tax internship at a Mid-Tier and two managers told me this: 1) As long as you have your 150 credit hours for your CPA, you’re good. “We care that you have or are working toward your CPA.” They both told me they regretted spending so much on a Masters Degree. Did not find it worth it. 2) They also said there isn’t a pay difference for someone who has a Masters and someone who got their 150 credit hours some other way ( for a 1st year staff btw).
I am from Bangladesh and I have completed my bachelor in accounting so how can I know that my bachelor courses fulfill CPA 150 hours ? Please 🙏 help me out .
I got my bachelors in agriculture business and took a lot of credits over the years. I decided to take the 30 units at a community college and see where I am at and start studying and taking the cpa exam next year.
@@unc1221 I still thought about a CPA but I don’t have positive reinforcement in my family. I have a relative that works in finance. He says all lite accounting work is done in India. You would not be good in accounting with all the laws you have to know. I have thought about not doing it, it’s so sad. Because I didn’t know what I wanna do I’ve always been told hurry up do what you gotta do.
@@robbiem4624 same, I’m interested in accounting as I’ve worked AP near other accountants, plus with a degree jobs are spot on. But, I don’t want the debt, and over here society is already declining so I’m good right now. Off you get a bachelors or masters your guaranteed a job, but masters programs usually require pre reqs. An MBA is definitely not worth it for accounting
THANK YOU FOR VID. Short and sweet. I’m going into uni soon after I’m done with community college but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to get a masters! I needed a second opinion that wasn’t biased with the whole more education= better, which isn’t anyways the case. Thank you!!!
Informative video! I’m finishing my undergrad in Business Applied Management. I only have 4 classes left. What should I do if I want to become an accountant? I have taken about 3-4 accounting courses throughout my education career.
THANK GOD! I DEFINITELY NEEDED THIS, GOOGLE WAS NOT HELPFUL. I am not going to go for my master's, I already have my BA of science in accounting... I just need to figure out what I'm going to do next. Do the extra 30 credits of classes have to be in the accounting field? or can I just choose something I'm interested in?
Hold on. No one cares about if you get a Masters in Accounting? There are many top level accounting positions primarily at senior level and accounting managers positions that require you to have a masters degree specially in accounting. No I haven't learned all I needed to know in my undergrad. I only took 2 classes in accounting during my BS in business administration.
If you are a licensed CPA or at least CPA eligible, no one is going to care whether you have a masters degree or not. The whole point of having a masters degree in accounting is to become CPA eligible (unless of course you want to eventually go the PhD route), but there are other ways to become CPA eligible beyond just getting your masters as I have explained.
Hello brother...👋🏻 Please make a video about the difference between academic qualification and professional qualification for upcoming employment forces!! As your point of view..
my CPA teaching institute advised me, to move to USA and Study MASTERS IN ACCOUNTANCY with analytics tack at case western unioversity , along with CPA ?? is it worth it ???
Would you say an emphasis in an area of accounting or a related masters is helpful for long-term options? For example, if I wanted to get into government audit and eventually move into a senior government accountant role down the line, would a Masters facilitate that?
To be honest, I can’t really say since I have little to know experience/knowledge of the government accounting world. However, if I had to guess, I would venture to say that it’s likely the same - as long as you have your CPA, you will be in the best position possible. The Masters certainly doesn’t hurt though, especially if you know for sure you want to stay in accounting for most of, it not all of your career. If that’s the case, I say go for it!
Sean Grimm Thanks for taking the time to reply! And that does line up with what I’ve observed others say about the CPA: that getting it is vital and more valued than a Masters. I appreciate the info your videos share 🤟🏾
What if you have a bachelor's in psychology? I'm about to graduate in one month from psychology and I wanna do accounting and either become a CPA or an enrolled agent. I took psychology when I was really young and I had dropped out from school 5 years ago and decided to go back to just finish it but decided I don't wNt to work in psychology. Do you advise me to do a Master's in Accountancy since I have no background in accounting or business? I contacted the board of accountancy in florida and they told me that I need an additional 26 credits in general business upper division credits and also 30 credits in accounting upper division credits to be avle to become a CPA. For non business or non accounting majors you need more than just 30 adittional credits to be a CPA. I need an additional 56 credits in total. So what would you do?
As an accountant will work in the accounting field dont take a master and if you want to take master dont take it in any major rather than accounting MAcc becouse its more valuable for you than MBA or any other degree
I’m a Hispanic minority I’m studying for my masters. I rather have a masters to compete with non minorities. Being Latino I have to work twice as hard to be recognized.
Sean thanks a lot for uploading this video.I was thinking whether to go for masters in accounting or not.I have 125 credits and need 25 more to sit for CPA exam that you mentioned in your video I can do it from anywhere.But I did my undergraduate from India and have no real experience in USA ..Will it affect?
Hmm. What would you say for someone who got a bachelors in business administration with a concentration in accounting. Finishing up but realized within the past few months I want my CPA. Should I get the masters that mirrors my undergraduate with just the concentration or would you recommend being as though I didn’t get all accounting courses that I’d benefit more from the accounting masters
hey I agree with you, and I have a question. I live in sweden and now doing a masters in accounting thinking it might help me find a jobb in the United states since Iam planning to move there. The problem is that, exactly as you said, everything is theory-based and academic. Do you think that a masters in accounting from Sweden would help me find a jobb in the states or make my life easier there? besides some issues like the fact that europe adheres to the IFRS while in the states it is GAAP. thanks in advance.
@@unc1221 Because it is good to understand the business of finance and accounting. Also, with advent of AI I want to expand my skills in both engineering and finance/ accounting.
I appreciate your insight. I am looking into a Masters in Accounting. I have Bachelors in Hotel & Restaurant Management from 20 years ago and looking for a career change. Would it be just as beneficial to get a Bachelors in Accounting versus a Masters?

I’m sorry for your plight my friend but I was in your shoes before I was recommended to Prof Dylan and that’s how I passed my cpa exam.
I was lucky to meet Mr Dylan only God

Yes, definitely worth it!
I like the honesty. Good work!
In the long run, if/when you transition from public to industry, having a graduate degree will matter when it comes to getting a promotion or raise.
