 Return to: Program Information
This program qualifies students for admission to the New York State
Certified Public Accountant (CPA) examination and to those of many
other states. (Note: The New York State Board of Regents adopted the
150-hour requirement for admission to the CPA examination in August
2004. Students should check with their major adviser.) This option
reduces the experience requirement for certification to one year.
Students planning to obtain CPA licenses in states other than New York
should also consider taking the New York state 150-hour option. Majors
in accounting must have an overall grade point average of 2.0 in
accounting course work at Hofstra. In addition, they must have a C- or
better in ACCT 101, 102, 123 and 124 whether taken at Hofstra or
transferred in from another institution. Otherwise, these accounting
courses must be retaken at Hofstra since no waivers will be granted for
them. The requirements are: ACCT 123, 124, 125, 131, 133, 135, 143,
144; LEGL 24 and electives chosen under advisement.
