Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting
 
AIB has designed an upper-division Bachelor of Science degree program that allows you to efficiently complete your studies for a degree and focus on courses that teach you the skills you need in today’s business world. AIB associate degree graduates will have their transcripts evaluated by the Bachelor’s Degree Admissions Counselor upon expressing interest in the program. Many AIB graduates will be able to complete a Bachelor of Science degree in 1 year if a full-time student (4 classes per term) or in about 2 years by completing 2 classes each term. AIB associate degree graduates will take approximately 16 classes or 72 quarter credit hours in the bachelor’s program. Graduation requirements are 198 quarter credit hours for the combined associate and bachelor’s degrees.
 
Students transferring into AIB with associate degrees (AA, AS, AAS, or AGS in any major) from other institutions will be evaluated on an individual basis. Transfer students with associate degrees receive credit for ALL classes taken within their associate degrees. On average, most associate degree graduates from other institutions will need to take 21-24 additional classes to complete their bachelor’s degree at AIB.
