**Minnesota residents may be eligible for reduced tuition as participants in the Minnesota–Wisconsin reciprocity agreement. Students certified under this agreement, although classified as nonresidents, are assessed the comparable instructional fees in effect at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities campus, plus the segregated fees assessed to all UW–Madison graduate students. Contact the Minnesota Higher Education Services Office for a reciprocity application.

Financial Support

Many students receive financial support that can assist with the costs of the program. Financial assistance is available from several sources. Students are generally not eligible for department-sponsored financial assistance in their first year in the MAcc program.

  • Many students complete a paid internship as part of the MAcc program
  • Teaching assistant (TA) positions are available on a competitive basis to MAcc students who have completed all the foundational accounting courses.
  • Scholarships are available to selected MAcc students. There is no application process for scholarships; all MAcc students will be considered for scholarships.
  • Many students have the opportunity to work one-on-one with faculty members, providing research support and/or help with grading. These positions pay an hourly rate.

Additional resources are available from the Office of Student Financial Aid at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.
