The Kentucky Wesleyan College Terry Woodward Center for Business Studies and the University of Louisville College of Business have established a significant partnership to offer KWC graduates expedited admission to UofL’s master of science in accounting and analytics (MSAA Pathway Program). The admission elements acknowledge the quality of KWC’s graduates while reducing the cost and uncertainty associated with the application process and consist of waiving a standardized examination, waiving UofL’s application fee and strong scholarship consideration for students who meet specific criteria.
