A brief overview of the experience I have had applying to jobs while at Ohio State in the Masters of Accounting program
As the first quarter of the MAcc program came to an end, I was reflecting on my first quarter experience and what I wish I would have known at the beginning compared to what I know now. Graduate school is most definitely different from undergraduate, especially when you are attending a completely different institution. There are three key things I realized during my reflection of the first quarter that I think would be particularly useful to incoming MAcc students.
1. Graduate School is not the same as undergraduate
Like most Ohio State students, my absolute favorite part of the fall is watching Ohio State football, and there is no better place to watch it than in the Shoe surrounded by 100,000 other fans. As a combined student, this is my fourth football season as a student but having a full year not in the stadium makes you appreciate it like it was the very first time.
Learn about my journey from a small liberal arts college to the Fisher MAcc program.
Hi everyone! My name is Victoria Nordquist, and as of Fall 2021, I am a current Masters of Accounting student here at Fisher School of Business. As you may be able to tell from my post title, I did not complete my undergraduate at Ohio State. I went to the University of Miami in Florida. However, I am originally an Ohio native and I'm from a small town near Dayton so I grew up hearing all about the Buckeyes!
It’s hard to believe the MAcc Program is already coming to an end. These nine months have truly flown by in a flash. It seems as though it was yesterday when I was still adjusting to a virtual graduate school environment. However, this past year has brought many learning skills and advice I want to pass on to incoming students.
I cannot believe the semester is coming to a close and I will soon be a graduate of the Fisher MAcc Program. This year has not been what I expected, but I have enjoyed my time at Ohio State. As graduation inches closer, I want to take time to reflect on my past year and give future MAcc students some advice.
1. Take advantage of the flexible elective options.
