Kentucky Wesleyan College and the University of Louisville have established a partnership to offer KWC graduates expedited admission to UofL’s master of science in accounting and analytics (MSAA Pathway Program).
“This agreement recognizes the high quality of Kentucky Wesleyan’s business and accounting programs and the exceptional quality of our graduates,” said Dr. James Cousins, provost and vice president of academic affairs at KWC. “The University of Louisville’s master of accounting and analytics complements our undergraduate programs nicely and can be an excellent option for students considering graduate school.”
Vernon Foster, Sr. Executive Director and Assistant Dean for UofL College of Business, said the collaboration signifies a strategic move toward providing an accelerated path to success in the fields of accountancy and analytics.
“Our commitment to an intensive 1-year accelerated graduate program equips KWC graduates with the essential knowledge and skills demanded by the industry while enabling them to swiftly enter the workforce with a competitive edge thanks to our optional paid internship component,” he said. “Our MSAA program’s emphasis on analytics opens doors to cutting-edge methodologies and technologies, preparing students for the challenges and opportunities presented by the evolving landscape of business intelligence.”
The admission elements consist of waiving a standardized examination, waiving UofL’s application fee, and strong scholarship consideration for students who meet specific criteria.
“Graduates of the KWC Accounting Program have a long history of serving their communities successfully in various capacities,” said Raju Chenna, associate professor of accounting at KWC. “Through this partnership, the University of Louisville recognizes the quality of our program and our graduates. We are thrilled.”
