St. Lawrence College offers an Advanced Diploma in Business Administration-Accounting for a duration of 3 years.
It is an on-campus program offered on a full-time basis.
St. Lawrence College offers two programs in accounting as follows:
- Business - Accounting (2 years)
- Business Administration-Accounting (3 years)
The first two years in both programs are common.
The Business Administration-Accounting (3 years) program offers students a more intensive background in financial accounting, corporate finance, cost accounting, and taxation during the third year as well as a work placement in the final semester of the program.
The program delivery is run on weekdays and classes may start as early as 8:30 am and may sometimes run to 8:30 pm.
Students starting in January must take the second semester during the spring/summer in order to be on track for the third semester in the fall.
Students have to use a PC computer for their accounting program studies. The use of a Mac computer is not recommended since accounting and tax software used in this program does not run on Macs.
Graduates of the accounting diploma programs have the opportunity to transfer into the professional program offered by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA).
Students have the opportunity to continue to the Laurentian University Bachelor of Business Administration degree offered on the Kingston campus.
St. Lawrence College offers an extensive Student Scholarship and Bursary Program. Scholarships and bursaries for this purpose are sponsored by external organizations and private individuals.
Students interested in pursuing a CPA designation can refer to the CPA Ontario web site which requires a university degree as an entrance requirement into the CPA Professional Education Program (CPA PEP Program).
The average salary of the program goes up to 34,000 USD.
