Hey everyone,

I am in my senior year at UT- Austin getting a degree in accounting. I was in the masters in accounting program here which means that I will graduate in five years with my masters. I recently have had a change of heart and want to move back north (I am from Illinois). I have decided to apply to some midwest schools where I could possibly get money from.

Here are my stats:
GMAT: 680
GPA: 3.8
I have decent but not amazing letters of recommendations

Where do you think I should apply? I am so far considering Ohio State and would like to apply to a couple others. What do you think? Also is there any advantage to applying earlier rather than later to these schools? I really don't know what I am doing so any advice would be greatly appreciated!
:D

Most top accounting programs only have Summer/Fall admissions.

In midwest, i would definitely consider Notre Dame, University of Michigan,
Univeristy of illinois, Northern Illinois, Miami University (Ohio), Michigan state, Indiana University - Bloomington, Ohio State, Wisconsin, ....


However, many of these schools won't give you MS in Accounting degree if you don't take certain amount of credits at their school. If you already started your 5th year and you want to transfer those credits, there might be an issue there.

I know I'm a little late chiming in here, but for what it's worth:

1. School prestige matters very little in accounting. I'd recommend you think about where you want to live after graduation and apply to schools there. For example, you're likely better off going to U of Illinois - Chicago than Ohio State, even though OSU is more highly ranked. Recruiting will be much easier if you're in the area.

2. The above is a good list of programs in the upper Midwest. Michigan, Notre Dame, and UIUC are probably the best programs in the region, followed by Indiana, Wisconsion, Michigan State, and the other big public schools. Assuming you want to be in Chicago, a good list of schools might be UIUC, UIC, NIU, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Indiana, and Iowa.

3. You have a strong profile, considering you went to a top accounting undergrad and have a strong GMAT score. Apply to a bunch of schools, but I'm pretty confident you'll have some good offers.

Good luck!
