Graduate Students
Advising for Future Terms: Most MAcc courses are only taught once per year. The course schedule for next year has not yet been published. We expect the schedule to be published in mid-February, on the MAcc Course Availability section of our website. We will email all MAcc students when that happens. Until that time, you are of course welcome to meet with an advisor if you have questions, but please understand we’re not able to help you plan a specific schedule at this time.
Graduate Awards: The Fisher School of Accounting application for graduate student fellowships/awards is available online on our Forms page. Awards range in value from $2,500 to $4,000. Completing this one short application puts the student in consideration for all available endowed scholarships and fellowships. Eligibility and instructions are printed on the application.
