I was recently accepted at both Fordham and Pace for a Master’s in Accounting program. I intend on sitting for my CPA during/after I complete the program and I am very interested in working a big four (I currently have a program with one of them that may lead to a FT job offer).

I noticed that Fordham isn’t AASCB accounting accredited, but it is business accredited. Pace and Hofstra and other comparable schools are all accounting and business accredited. Is this that important? I am leaning more towards Fordham right now but I am nervous that it doesn’t have as much clout, and I really want to be somewhere with a good career services center… does anyone have any information?

Thank you!
