Boston College MSA
I will be matriculating into the MS Accounting program at BC for 2012 and was hoping some alum and/or current students could help me out with a few questions I have.
1) I am a non-target, non- accounting major and am curious to know how hard it may be to get ocr jobs, in general how is msa recruiting? How many big 4 placement/ MM/ etc?
2) How rigorous is the course load? I hear it is not terribly difficult if your a decent student and that most of the class get B or A range.
3) Are there any particular pitfall you can think of, or conversely any particularly great things about BC csom?
It is an expensive program and I just want to make sure I am not spending money on what I could get at a mediocre state school.
Thanks in advance.
Why not BC's MSF program?
for a non-target non-accounting major I would not pick an an institution whose MSF is not highly respected (MIT, Princeton, WUSTL, Tulane, Claremont, Vanderbilt, Villanova) over an MSA b.c accounting pretty much guarantees a job, basically, if you don't get in an MSF at one of the aforementioned school it is better to go with the safer, more established, option (MSA).
a job is better than no job... indeed!

Would really like to hear more if any grads are around, I am in a similar position.
Boston College MS in Accounting? Lock for Big 4 as long as your undergrad GPA is not terrible (3.0).
Bang.
Really, that is good to hear. My undergrad major is economics and I had a 3.8+ cumulative and higher major GPA. I wasnt sure about their recruiting and others had been telling me that Bentley does better. I really want to go to BC and recruiting is a top priority for me.
