Business Administration with a Concentration in Accounting (ACC.ABA)

The Associate Degree in Business Administration Degree with a concentration in accounting offers a cognitive foundation in areas fundamental to business studies such as accounting, economics and mathematics.

Students elect the Associate in Business Administration Degree for various reasons that may include further study toward a bachelor degree or as preparation for CPA certification or MBA programs.

Graduating from this program qualifies the student for the Michigan Transfer Agreement (MTA) endorsement.  Students should work closely with an OCC counselor to identify courses from the MTA list which apply to the endorsement and to select courses that will satisfy the intake requirements of the intended transfer institution.

All courses that satisfy MTA requirements must be completed with a grade of "C" (2.0) or higher.  All courses comprising the 60 - 64 credits required for the degree must be completed with a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher.

Because transferability of credits varies with colleges and universities, programs, and departmental majors, students are urged to discuss their program plans with an OCC counselor and an advisor at the intended transfer institution.
