Bachelor of Science in Business Administration in Accounting

Accounting information influences decisions made by business executives and the behavior of investors, creditors, consumers, supply chain partners, policymakers, and employees. The accounting major helps students learn the best ways to measure an organization's financial and non-financial activities and how to use this information to make data-driven decisions. MSB's accounting graduates have been ranked as having the highest earning potential among accounting graduates from all U.S. business schools. Recent employers of students who major or minor in accounting include Amazon, Bain, Barclays, BlackRock, Boston Consulting Group, Carlyle, Citi, Deloitte, Evercore, EY, Google, J.P. Morgan, KPMG, McKinsey, Macquarie, Marriott, Morgan Stanley, PwC and UBS.

Career paths for accounting majors and minors include management consulting, investment and commercial banking, hedge funds, private equity, technology startups and large corporations (roles in marketing, operations, corporate finance), and public accounting. Students should consider pairing an accounting major or minor with Finance, Operations and Analytics, or Marketing as careers in these fields engage with accounting information routinely.

SAT (SAT Code 5244)
Students must submit an official score report from The College Board.
Georgetown only considers the Verbal (EBRW) and Math portions of the SAT in our review process.

Georgetown only considers the English, Math, Reading, and Science sections of the ACT in our review process.
Georgetown does not use the new ACT super score optional reports. Please send all individual ACT scores to our office from each ACT test administration as we are not a score choice school.
