Information For Transfer Students

A Prerequisite for admission to the Georgia Southern University graduate-level forensic accounting program is completion of the following five courses, which make up the undergraduate minor in fraud examination:

To accommodate those students who completed their undergraduate accounting degrees at other institutions, the above five courses are offered each summer, beginning in mid-May and ending in mid-July. Accordingly, a transfer student can complete all five of the required undergraduate courses during the summer and then be admitted into the graduate-level forensic accounting program for the fall.

Transfer students can receive credit for having taken courses equivalent to any of the above five courses. Transfer credit decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis and will be based on:

  • A copy of the Course Syllabus for which transfer credit is being sought, and
  • Whether the content of the course was sufficiently comparable to the equivalent Georgia Southern University course.
