All degree programs require completion of the General Education Curriculum<\/a>. A complete description of the gen ed and its requirements are available in the General Education Curriculum<\/a> section of the Daemen catalog. Courses that satisfy a portion or complete a core requirement will have such designation indicated after the course title.<\/p>\n Transfer Policy<\/span><\/p>\n A student transferring from a two-year college or from a four-year school with a non-registered Accounting program will be limited to transferring the following accounting courses provided they have been assessed as meeting Daemen’s stated levels of competence for comparable work: ACC225,\u00a0ACC226, ACC315. A transfer student who originally enters another major at Daemen and transfers into the Accounting program will need to undergo a re-evaluation of any transfer of accounting courses to meet the above requirements.<\/p>\n Graduation Requirements<\/span><\/p>\n Pursuit Of The BS\/MS, Accounting\/Professional Accountancy<\/strong><\/p>\n For those students applying to the BS\/MS program, an overall grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 is required. Students with a GPA of less than 3.00 who wish to pursue the BS\/MS program should consult with the Accounting Program Chair regarding conditional acceptance. Students who are conditionally accepted will be allowed to take\u00a0three of the required graduate courses while still being a major in the BS, Accounting program. If minimum grades of B are achieved in each of the\u00a0three graduate courses, the student will file the Change of Major form with the Registrar’s office and will be accepted as a matriculating student in the BS\/MS program.<\/p>\n Students who wish to pursue the dual-degree BS\/MS Accounting\/Professional Accountancy program will begin studies as a major in the BS, Accounting program and must formally apply for a change to the dual degree program by completing a Change of Major form with the Registrar’s office. This change will generally occur upon completion of the Sophomore year. The registered BS\/MS Accounting\/Professional Accountancy program is available only to students who are entering the program directly from the undergraduate accounting program.<\/p>\n For students who decide to apply to the BS\/MS program while currently enrolled in the undergraduate accounting program, both the BS and MS degrees are conferred upon successful completion of all requirements of the BS\/MS curriculum. <\/a>Because the BS\/MS program is a dual degree program, no single degree conferral is granted.<\/p>\nBS Requirements<\/h2>\n
