Accounting Pathway
AAS to MBA 3+1+1

The ECCC Accounting Pathway

The Accounting Pathway trains students to analyze the operations of a business as well as to prepare and analyze financial reports that furnish current information for businesses, government agencies, and other organizations.

Students earn their Associate of Applied Science degree from ECCC and complete many of their core courses toward a bachelor degree.

Students then transfer to The W's College of Business & Professional Studies. The Bachelor of Business Administration – General Business Concentration can be completed entirely online in one year, without having to leave your current job. After completing the bachelor degree, students are encouraged to apply to The W's MBA program, completed online in one year.

This pathway can be completed all online.
