Master [Accounting] From University of Nebraska Omaha

The MACC program at UNO offers graduates an affordable, high-quality graduate education from an AACSB-accounting-accredited institution. Specialized accounting accreditation by the AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) is earned by demonstrating that we meet international standards of excellence relating to delivering and managing undergraduate and graduate accounting programs, and fewer than 190 institutions worldwide hold AACSB accounting accreditation.

Academic PerformanceIn addition to the Quality of Work Standards required by the UNO Graduate College, MACC students may repeat only once any ACCT 8--0 or ACCT 8--6 level course in which they receive any grade, including "W" or "I".Students earning a third grade of "C+" or lower (or any single grade below "C- "(1.67 on a 4.0 scale) will be automatically dismissed from the MACC program. Dismissed students will be immediately administratively withdrawn from all courses in which they are enrolled for MACC credit in any subsequent semester or summer session until reinstatement has been granted by the MACC Graduate Program Committee (MACC GPC).Students who have been dismissed from the MACC program may submit a written petition for reinstatement to the MACC GPC. Students who have petitioned the MACC GPC for reinstatement may not enroll in any courses for MACC credit. Upon receiving a petition for reinstatement, the MACC GPC will evaluate the student's petition. As part of the reinstatement petitioning process, the MACC GPC reserves the right to examine the student's academic record and reserves the right to speak to any previous instructor who has taught the student, and this information may be used by the MACC GPC in the reinstatement decision. Information provided by previous instructors will not be shared with the student. Reinstatement is a privilege, and not all students who are dismissed will be reinstated. Students who have been reinstated will serve a probationary period of the MACC GPC's discretion and must satisfy the probationary conditions specified by the MACC GPC. In addition to probationary conditions, reinstated students will be subject to additional reinstatement conditions as specified by the MACC GPC. These reinstatement conditions will include retaking one or more courses in which the student must earn a grade of "B" (3.0) or higher (the exact grade requirements for retaken courses may in fact be higher than "B" (3.0)). Students not achieving the probationary or reinstatement conditions will be automatically dismissed.Financial AssistanceA limited number of graduate scholarships, assistantships, and non-resident tuition waivers are available to MACC students. Those interested in information about these opportunities may call (402) 554-3650. Employed applicants should explore tuition reimbursement plans from their employers.
