The Ledger — Tutoring Opportunities, OSU ACTG Scholarship, Tabling & 3yrs from Graduation, & Tours

FROM THE ADVISORS TO ALL ACCOUNTING MAJORS

Attention Accounting majors who will be taking all electives in their last term to earn their 225 credits to qualify to take the CPA exam.  Effective Spring term, OSU will no longer require students to apply to graduate, but will instead be automatically graduating students when they meet all their graduation requirements (classes, grades, credits, etc.) for their declared program(s) of study.  If you were planning to just tack on the additional elective credits you needed to bring you to 225 credits at the very end of your studies (i.e. all electives in your last term without any required classes/credits), you should make an appointment with an advisor to strategize this.  Failure to do this in the proper way, may result in you graduating OSU before you completed the credits you wanted for CPA.
