    Arizona State University Masters of Professional Accounting: http://sgml.asu.edu/online/

    AACSB
    Very few prereqs - designed for non-accounting majors

    "Upon successful completion, program graduates will meet the 150-hour educational requirement to qualify for the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam. The program is an excellent career choice for students who DO NOT hold an undergraduate degree in accounting but wish to pursue career advancement in accountancy professions. Mastery of the technical and professional skills that form the core of the MPAc will give you the competitive advantage to accelerate your career advancement and compensation growth."

    "How much does the Masters degree in Accounting graduate program cost?
    The 30-hour Masters degree in Accounting graduate program costs $10,000 plus the base graduate tuition as determined each year by the Arizona Board of Regents. For the 2006/07 academic year, the base graduate resident tuition for 30 semester hours was $13,410. There is no additional charge for books or other course materials."

    Does that mean that the entire program will cost $23,410?

    ASU has an interesting set-up. They have the Carey School of Business and the School of Global Management and Leadership. Carey offers a Masters of Accountancy while SGML will be offering the MPAc. Both have the AACSB symbol on their page, but I wonder why they have (wanted) two business schools.

    Oh, and they have had an online MBA program (through Carey) for some time now.

    I think this is a great feature for a DL program:

    "Beginning in the Fall of 2008, students will have the opportunity to take MPAc courses either on-campus or via anytime online learning technologies, depending on your schedule, location or learning style."
