Accounting graduates from TCU's Neeley School of Business were rated No. 1 in
Texas for success rates in passing the Uniform CPA Exam by the Texas State Board
of Public Accountancy, based on schools with high numbers of candidates taking
the exam. For the testing period, October-December 2005, 1,534 candidates from
65 Texas colleges and universities took the exam. Twenty-five were from the
Neeley School of Business.
“Since our Masters of Accounting program is small relative to schools such as
the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University, this is a
significant accomplishment for our recent graduates,” said Dr. Barry Bryan,
professor of professional practice in accounting and director of the master of
accounting program at the Neeley School of Business. “The success they achieved
is a reflection of the quality of instruction they received both from my
colleagues in the accounting department and other departments in the Neeley
School.”
In addition, PricewaterhouseCoopers has chosen the Neeley School of Business
as a key recruiting school. This designation means that PricewaterhouseCoopers
will place a substantial amount of resources in on-campus activities, as well as
in recruiting and hiring Neeley graduates.
