Accounting, BBA

Program Description

The Associate of Arts, AA at JCCC is a general transfer degree and partners well with the first two years of most bachelor degree programs. Students pursuing the AA may select courses that satisfy both the AA degree requirements and lower division requirements for a bachelor’s degree at four-year institutions. The elective hours within the AA allow students to complete additional general education and lower division courses required for specific majors. The AA degree requires completion of 60 credit hours. Meeting with a JCCC counselor is strongly recommended for selection of appropriate courses.

Program Requirements: 

A minimum total of 120 credit hours is required for the Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in accounting. In addition to meeting the requirements of the WSU General Education Program and the requirements for all BBA programs set by the W. Frank Barton School of Business, candidates for the BBA in accounting must satisfy all Accounting major coursework. All majors must contain at least 12 unduplicated credit hours. All minors must contain at least 3 unduplicated credit hours.

WSU Transfer Students Should Remember:

• WSU Transfer Policy – Credit Acceptance: It is the policy of Wichita State University (WSU) to accept all credits – with the exception of remedial coursework – earned at a post- secondary institution accredited by one of the U.S. regional accrediting agencies. Each academic college or department within WSU determines how those credits apply toward a particular degree program. Sometimes there can be a significant difference between what transfers and what counts toward a degree, especially if the courses are vocational in nature. To be eligible for graduation from Wichita State University, students transferring from a two-year college must complete at least 60 credit hours of four-year college work and 45 credit hours of upper-division coursework.

• Dual Advising: WSU strongly suggests that potential transfer students involve their WSU advisor in program planning.

• Graduation Requirements: To qualify for graduation with a WSU bachelor’s degree, transfer students must meet certain requirements such as course credit hours, levels, GPA, and residency.
