While I can’t say I’m 100% sure about Stanford, I know for a fact that UCLA has an accounting program because I am in it. It’s not a major, but a minor, but nevertheless that doesn’t stop any of the Big 4 or the tens of midtiers/locals from recruiting from here. I haven’t looked at the rankings, but I have met countless staff and managers from various Big 4 firms that have graduated from UCSB and USF. So again, while I am not 100% sure about the rankings, I do know what I’m talking about. Rankings in accounting don’t necessarily matter. All that matters is if your school gets recruited.

Jace, I am in the minor right now and it is a great and rigorous program that prepares you very well for the CPA exam. I will be interning at a Big 4 firm this summer. The hardest part of the CPA exam requirements is probably the 225 unit requirement. You can just take some bs classes online for that, though.
