Department: Accounting and Finance 

The finance concentration prepares students for positions in banking, investments, financial planning, cash management and international finance in both public and private institutions. This concentration also assists in preparing students for professional certifications such as the Certified Financial Planner (CFP) or Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA).

Grade Requirement

No more than two grades lower than “C-” in a required Accounting and Finance course (ACFI prefix) will be applied toward fulfillment of the requirements for the accounting and finance major. This policy applies to students accepted for matriculation as freshmen or as transfer students enrolled for the fall 2002 semester or thereafter. Students who receive more than two “D’s” or “F’s” in courses may continue as accounting and finance majors but must retake a sufficient number of the required courses in which the “D’s” or “F’s” were earned and earn a grade of “C-” or higher, so that no more than a total of two “ACFI” prefix required courses, with grades below “C-” will be counted towards fulfillment of the requirements in the accounting and finance major.
