Top 10 Undergraduate Accounting Programs in Connecticut
The creation of our top 10 list of best undergraduate accounting programs in Connecticut was formulated by reviewing how each school ranked in websites and publications like BYU, Bloomberg Business, US News and World Report, LinkedIn, Forbes, Princeton Review, TaxTalent, Public Accounting Report (PAR),and College Factual.
We also took into consideration the programmatic accreditation of the schools. All of the schools on our list are regionally accredited, but some have business-specific accreditation as well, the most prestigious being from the Association of Advanced Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
