1 University of Texas--Austin (McCombs) Austin, TX
Ranked as the NO.1 accounting school, but the competition here is also very intense. Compared to UIUC, it admits fewer students from Mainland China each year, and the tuition is quite expensive. As the first university in the U.S. to establish a graduate degree program in accounting, the University of Texas at Austin enjoys a prestigious reputation in the accounting industry. The Department of Accounting currently offers two levels of degrees: a Master’s in Professional Accounting (MPA) and a Ph.D. in Accounting.
