Accounting Elective Selection Process

Accounting Elective Selection Process

All course scheduling for accounting classes is handled through LionPath. Your class registration date is based on your total number of completed credits. The schedule for course registration can be accessed on the Registrar’s website. The undergraduate accounting major requires students to select 6 credits from the following list of courses offered by Smeal. Please note that some classes are only offered in the fall or the spring semester.

Due to capacity constraints, the Accounting Department may be unable to honor requests for courses that exceed the minimum coursework needed to meet graduation requirements. Students who wish to take accounting courses above and beyond what is required by the undergraduate major may do so if open seats are available.

The Accounting Department will give seniors the first priority for seats in accounting elective courses. Students who schedule accounting electives beyond the 6 credits that are needed for the undergraduate major will be asked to drop those classes to allow space for other students to complete the required number of courses.
