The Best Master's in Accounting Programs for 2026

The University of Texas at Austin's McCombs School of Business offers its Master in Professional Accounting (MPA) as a one-year, STEM-designated degree with three distinct entry paths. The Traditional MPA is open to UT and non-UT graduates with a bachelor's in any field and requires no prior work experience; the MPA Bridge lets current UT undergrads outside accounting start MPA coursework during senior year; and the Integrated MPA is for McCombs accounting BBA students who take graduate courses at undergraduate tuition rates to finish both degrees together. Core accounting classes pair with MBA electives in finance, management, information technology, and marketing, and the program includes a study-abroad option in Prague.

McCombs carries a Hakia Score of 97.5, an 89% graduation rate, and a 27% admit rate, moderately selective: more open than Emory's 11% but tighter than Florida's 24%. In-state tuition runs $11,688 against $44,908 for nonresidents, a $33,220 difference that makes Texas residency the biggest single cost lever here, and a rate close to Washington's similarly priced in-state MPAcc at $11,869. The school reports that 98% of its 2025 MPA class received job offers after graduation and that 97% of that class said they would recommend investing in the degree; McCombs also states its CPA candidates typically outpace state and national pass rates, though no specific pass-rate number is published on the page. Over 400 companies recruit directly from the program each year.

Wharton's Accounting major sits inside its two-year MBA rather than as a stand-alone master's. Students choose four course units from a track built around real accounting practice: Cost Management, Financial Reporting and Business Analysis, Accounting for Mergers, Acquisitions and Complex Financial Structures, Financial Disclosure Analytics, Climate and Financial Markets, Accounting for Entrepreneurs, and Taxes and Business Strategy, plus a Valuation elective from the finance department. The curriculum is flexible enough to layer in coursework toward CPA licensure, whose requirements are set state by state per AICPA guidance, or toward CMA certification, though Wharton advises meeting an Accounting Department adviser early since those requirements typically exceed the MBA major's minimums. Students can also add a Global Experience Concentration, spending two course units at an approved partner school such as INSEAD, London Business School, or HEC Paris.

Wharton's Hakia Score of 97.2 ranks it fifth among these four programs, built on a 97% graduation rate against the tightest admit rate in the group at 5%. Tuition runs $60,920 a year, identical for in-state and out-of-state students since Wharton is private, inside a university that enrolls 29,109 students overall. Because accounting here is a major inside a 19-course-unit, two-year MBA rather than a fast one-year credential, it fits candidates who want full general-management training and an international elective option alongside deep accounting coursework, not those chasing the shortest route to CPA eligibility.

NYU Stern's MS in Accounting is a full-time, in-person, 30-credit program finished in a single year, with a Fall intake and a Summer graduation, built specifically to meet New York's CPA exam and licensure requirements. Faculty include practicing CPAs teaching audit, tax, valuation, and financial statement analysis, the program is AACSB accredited, and the school reports that US News & World Report ranked NYU Stern #1 in Accounting among its 2026 "Best Business School" specialty rankings.

Stern's Hakia Score of 96.8 ranks it sixth in this group, on an 88% graduation rate and a 9% admit rate, tighter than Notre Dame's but looser than Wharton's or Northeastern's 5%. Tuition is $62,796, the same for in-state and out-of-state students at this private university, which enrolls 56,832 total. The program fits students who already have an accounting or business foundation and want the fastest bridge from bachelor's degree to CPA-exam eligibility while recruiting out of New York City; the school reports 95% of its 2025 graduates had job offers within four months, more than half at a Big Four firm, and roughly a quarter to a third of students receive merit scholarships between $5,000 and $20,000.

Notre Dame's Mendoza College of Business runs a one-year, 30-credit MSA split across two semesters, starting in mid-August or January. Students choose between a STEM-designated Data Analytics major and a Traditional MSA path, then add a concentration in Tax Services and Assurance or Advisory Services, with an optional second concentration in Deal and Advisory for students aiming at mergers and acquisitions work. Sixty percent of the curriculum is electives, a dedicated faculty CPA adviser helps map coursework to each student's state CPA licensure requirements, and students without an accounting background can prepare over the summer through the school's Accounting Immersion Program.

Notre Dame's Hakia Score of 96.3 ranks seventh here, on a 95% graduation rate against an 11% admit rate, the least selective of these four programs but still competitive. Tuition is $64,518, and the cohort is small by design, the school lists 86 total students in its Class of 2026 MSA. Notre Dame reports that 99% of its MSA Class of 2025 accepted full-time offers within six months, at an average base salary of $79,706, with more than 80% historically landing at a Big Four firm; that mix of small cohort size and near-universal Big Four placement fits students who want close faculty access without sacrificing recruiting reach.

Northeastern's D'Amore-McKim MS in Accounting is a full-time, seven-month program built for students who already hold a U.S. undergraduate accounting degree, with a single Summer entry term. Students complete 18 credits of advanced accounting coursework aligned to core CPA exam topics, then choose a 12-credit specialization in Audit, covering forensic accounting and audit research, or Tax, covering tax law and strategy at the local, national, and international levels. The 30 credits deliver the 150 total credits CPA licensure requires, and graduates finish in December, timed to accounting's busy season; students who keep a 3.0 GPA can later apply those 30 credits toward a D'Amore-McKim MBA for up to three years, with a 25% Double Husky scholarship.

Northeastern's Hakia Score of 95.9 ranks eighth in this group, on a 91% graduation rate and a 5% admit rate, tied with Wharton as the most selective of the four. Tuition is $64,990, the highest sticker price here but compressed into seven months rather than a full year or two-year MBA, inside a university that enrolls 32,553 students overall. The school reports a 95% job placement rate for graduates with U.S. work authorization over the past five years, backed by a Graduate School of Professional Accounting alumni network of more than 4,000. It fits accounting undergrads who want the shortest path to CPA-exam eligibility and are willing to specialize early in Audit or Tax.

Wisconsin's Master of Accountancy sits inside the School of Business's Department of Accounting and Information Systems, one of the first five business programs founded in the country, in 1900. Any student with a four-year undergraduate degree in any field can apply, with no accounting background or prior work experience required, and the 54-credit curriculum splits into two named options: Accounting, Assurance, Advisory or Tax. Most students complete a public or corporate accounting internship, and the program threads an ethics and professionalism sequence through every course to prepare graduates for the CPA exam. One fact matters more than any ranking for anyone reading this in 2026: UW-Madison stopped admitting new MAcc students after Fall 2025 and will discontinue the program entirely by Fall 2028, so this profile documents a program that is winding down, not one accepting applications today.

For the students who did get in, the numbers were strong. IPEDS data puts the graduation rate at 90% against a 45% admit rate, and that mix of high completion and real selectivity helped earn a 95.9 Hakia Score, good for #9 nationally in this ranking. In-state tuition ran $10,006 against $40,506 out-of-state, a $30,500 gap, meaning out-of-state students paid roughly four times what Wisconsin residents did for the same degree. UW-Madison enrolls 51,044 students overall, a large public flagship recruiting base even as this specific program winds down. The MAcc carried AACSB accreditation with its next review set for 2026-2027, and it met CPA licensure coursework requirements in every state except California, Texas, and Colorado, where graduates needed a separate board-approved ethics course. It was the right fit for Wisconsin residents chasing a low-cost, high-completion CPA credential, but that door is now closed to new applicants.

The University of Georgia's Master of Accountancy runs through the J.M. Tull School of Accounting inside Terry College of Business, and the school builds it as a compressed CPA pipeline: many students finish a BBA and the MAcc back to back, sitting for the CPA exam while still enrolled instead of studying nights and weekends on the job. The school reports a top 10 national first-time CPA pass rate and near 100% graduate employment, and states that many public accounting firms pay a first-time-pass bonus that matches or exceeds UGA's own MAcc tuition. The program's recruiting list includes all four Big 4 firms plus Goldman Sachs, Grant Thornton, RSM, CBIZ, and the IRS.

The underlying IPEDS numbers back up the pitch: a 90% graduation rate against a 38% admit rate, selective but not restrictive, a combination that drove a 95.5 Hakia Score and a #10 national ranking on this list. In-state tuition is $10,034 against $30,272 out-of-state, a $20,238 gap, so an out-of-state student pays roughly three times what a Georgia resident pays for the identical degree. UGA's total enrollment of 43,146 makes it a large public flagship with the recruiting scale to back the school's placement claims. The MAcc fits students who want a fast, CPA-focused credential with a dense in-state pipeline to regional and Big 4 firms, especially Georgia residents who can capture that $20,238 tuition advantage.

Vanderbilt's Master of Accountancy runs through the Owen Graduate School of Management as a 12-month, full-time, in-person program in Nashville, split into two named tracks: MAcc Assurance and MAcc Valuation. Every student gets a paid internship built into the calendar alongside CPA exam preparation, and the school reports that graduates land offers almost exclusively from the Big 4, KPMG, Deloitte, PwC, and EY, before advancing on roughly a five-year path to manager. The school also reports a 91% first-time CPA pass rate on a five-year average and states that Owen ranks in the top 10% of business schools worldwide.

Vanderbilt's 6% admit rate is the most selective figure among this group of programs; IPEDS data shows a 94% graduation rate alongside it, and that pairing produced a 95.1 Hakia Score, good for #11 nationally. Tuition runs a flat $65,008 whether a student is a Tennessee resident or not, since Vanderbilt is a private nonprofit with no in-state discount, roughly six and a half times UGA's in-state MAcc tuition, the tradeoff for a compressed 12-month timeline and a near-total Big 4 placement pipeline. With 13,575 students university-wide, Owen operates at a far smaller scale than the public flagships above it on this list. The program suits applicants who can clear a roughly 1-in-17 acceptance rate and pay full private tuition for speed and a dense recruiting pipeline into public accounting and CPA licensure.

This listing covers the same Owen Graduate School of Management MAcc under the broader Accounting and Business/Management classification, which lines up with MAcc Valuation, the second of Vanderbilt's two named tracks alongside MAcc Assurance. It runs the same 12-month, full-time, in-person calendar in Nashville, with a paid internship and CPA exam prep built in, but the valuation coursework leans into the business and management side of the credential rather than pure audit and assurance work. The school reports the same outcomes across both tracks: 100% of recent graduates accepted an offer within six months of graduation, and most launched their careers at a Big 4 firm.

Because it is the same institution and student body, the underlying IPEDS numbers match the Assurance-track listing almost exactly: a 94% graduation rate, a 6% admit rate, and a flat $65,008 tuition for in-state and out-of-state students alike, on a base of 13,575 students university-wide. The Hakia Score here is 95.0, a tenth of a point below the Assurance-track listing's 95.1, which places this CIP-coded version at #12 nationally versus #11. That near-identical scoring reflects a single MAcc program that IPEDS tracks under two accounting CIP codes rather than two separate degrees. It fits the same applicant: someone who can clear a roughly 1-in-17 acceptance rate, pay full private tuition with no residency discount, and wants the valuation-leaning track within Vanderbilt's compressed 12-month path toward CPA licensure.
