Does a UMUC graduate have to take all 36 credits?
Students who received bachelor s degrees in accounting (or earned 24 credits in undergraduate accounting) from another institution must complete 36 graduate credits to earn the MSM. However, UMUC graduates with a specialization in accounting may be able to complete the MSM with only 30 credits – if, as undergraduates, they completed certain courses recognized as equivalent by both the Graduate School and Undergraduate Programs at UMUC. Please note: Only 3 undergraduate credits earned in these parallel courses may be applied to the graduate degree, and only 3 graduate credits may be applied to the undergraduate degree. Therefore, to be eligible to earn the MS in Management in 30 credits, UMUC undergraduates must have applied one of the parallel graduate courses to the undergraduate degree.
