    I am set to graduate from my undergraduate Accounting program in May ’15. I’m beginning my GMAT studies during Winter break and aiming to graduate with a GPA in the range of 3.4-3.6. Can anyone enlighten me on the potential benefits of earning an AACSB (or other business/accounting related accreditation) accredited MAcc versus earning a degree that is just regionally accredited? I am really leaning towards regionally accredited to save money and time, but of course I want to make the right choice. If it matters, I am looking at UMUC for my MAcc.

    if you nearby Charlotte, NC. I have heard and seen couple months back that there are quite a few openings in Accounting field. It is a growing city. Idk if you use indeed. I would highly recommend you using that site of job search. And also, start using LinkedIn as a networking tool… It is really helpful. Wish you the very best in this process!

    Thank you, rp! I am actually in Jacksonville so I've been looking as far as Greenville and Wilmington. Not as much activity in the job market, but I'm still hopeful. I use Indeed and Linkedin religiously.
