Accounting from a student’s perspective
When I went into my first accounting class, I was extremely nervous, but so excited to be at school. Within half an hour, I was comfortable and knew I would learn what I wanted to learn. The instructors were wonderful. If you had a question, whether the class was online or on campus, they always had time to help you. Class sizes were wonderful. What was the best thing about GU/MSB? I love a challenge. I definitely plan on going back to school this year and taking the CPA exam.
