If I had to give one of them the edge I'd give it to DU (and I'm not just saying that because I'm an alumnus there) only because I think that DU has a good national reputation while Golden Gate is only really well-known in the Bay Area/California. I do work in public accounting, getting the MST degree from DU was the best thing I ever did for myself. I a much more technically proficient than the people I started with and because of that I have gotten on some really big and interesting projects (and I'm not being conceited it's the truth).

Thanks, Very interesting.

So, How long you been working in the public accounting industry, and how is your salary like? I think you should mention where you located at,so i can really compare it..since your are a CPA and MBT.

Univ of Denver tuition was pretty high. i assume that they are private.

And where do you work now if you don't mind sharing??

DU is a private school so tuition is steep, but they have a lot of money and they are very generous with scholarships. If you're interested in going I would recommend applying and if you get in see if they will give you some sort of scholarship.

I work in the Bay Area and my salary is decent, but I'm not a CPA yet I still need the experience.
