Taxation Master's Degrees in Washington, DC

Tax accounting and tax law for accountants: master's degrees in taxation and formal tax concentrations inside accounting degrees. Only taxation programs with a substantive accounting focus are listed. A law degree such as an LLM in Taxation is not an accounting degree and is not listed. 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 Washington, DC 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 Washington, DC is not automatically open to residents of every state.
