Of course, students may confidently apply to graduate programs where we don't have articulation agreements. Some other liberal arts colleges are marketing such a program to potential students, and we would be happy to work with students who choose this route to sit for the CPA Exam. In discussions with representatives of companies and accounting firms who hire our majors, the interest in hiring immediately from Augustana has not changed. Students who accept employment immediately after graduation from Augustana will continue their education on a part-time basis until they have achieved the requisite hours to sit for the CPA Exam. The undergraduate program at Augustana College provides a rich grounding in the liberal arts.
Students have the advantage of a broad-based general education along with a strong technical major.
Because of our quarter system, students can double-major, participate in one of the foreign quarters, go out on an internship, and still graduate in four years. Students grow multi-dimensionally, exploring a variety of interests and practicing leadership and team skills. Employers appreciate the quality of our graduates and their preparation to meet the demands of the profession. Articulating from Augustana to a university graduate program provides not only a graduate degree, but also the enrichment of a new faculty with different backgrounds, experiences, and interests. I have more questions.
