Accounting and Finance (A25800WC)

Transfer Pathway to Western Carolina University

This program is an articulated program with Western Carolina University. Students who plan to attend the accounting program at Western Carolina University should be enrolled in the Accounting Associate in Applied Science Degree program at Blue Ridge Community College (see page 52). Students must complete each course within the Accounting Degree with a grade of “C” or better for the course to transfer.  

Students may be required to take developmental courses in Math and/or English as a result of high school GPA or pre-enrollment placements tests. Therefore, the student may need more than the minimum number of semester hours listed for graduation. Consult a program advisor for more information.
