Accounting Master's Degrees in New Jersey

The core study of financial reporting, managerial accounting, taxation, auditing and accounting systems. Institutions call the field accounting or accountancy; both names are covered here. Accounting and accountancy are different words for the same subject. The degree title, the credits and the program's own CPA-related statements decide what a program offers, not its name. Programs appear here only when official curriculum evidence supports the subject: a named concentration or track, or the degree's own required core — never a topic covered in one or two courses.

Listings in New Jersey identify where the school (or the campus that delivers the program) is located. For online programs this is not a requirement to live there, and an online degree based in New Jersey is not automatically open to residents of every state.
