College Choice Releases 2016 Ranking of the Best Master's in Accounting Degrees
EUGENE, Ore., May 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- College Choice (http://www.collegechoice.net/), a leading authority in college search and rankings, has published a ranking of the top fifty online master's degrees in accounting in the United States (http://www.collegechoice.net/rankings/best-masters-in-accounting-degree-2016/).
New York University, University of Michigan, University of Notre Dame, University of Texas at Austin, and University of Virginia occupy the top five spots on the list, which is based on factors such as cost of attendance, each program's reputation in its field, and return on investment. Other schools include Michigan State University, Baylor University, Texas A&M University, Miami University Ohio, and University of Pennsylvania.
Robert Hand, lead editor for the ranking, explains College Choice's ranking further. "Accountants are visible in every business, every major corporation, and even in government agencies. Some go into private practice for themselves, helping people do their taxes, while others work in law firms, helping to discern off-shore practices and other related services that pertain to the accounting practices of their businesses. Right now, accountants rank as number three in the best jobs to have in the current market. And spending one extra year in school is enough to make a salary jump by $10,000 per year just starting out."
