ACCT 542 Enrollment: Introduction to Federal Tax Procedure:
ACCT 542 provides a unique opportunity for undergraduate accounting students to learn about federal tax procedures through a service-learning experience in our community. This course fulfills your requirements for an upper-division accounting elective. As part of the seminar and under the supervision of a faculty-practitioner, you will be representing taxpayers in front of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to help solve any tax disputes or controversies.
Space in ACCT 542 is limited. Therefore, students interested in enrolling in ACCT 542 must submit an application along with a resume and a DPR along with application using this link. While students are urged to submit their application by the priority deadline (October 15th for the spring semester and March 15th for the fall semester), applications will be accepted until the class is full. Successful applicants must demonstrate that they have successfully completed ACCT 440 or are currently enrolled in ACCT 440. Given the limited space available in ACCT 542 each semester, priority consideration will be given to students with some tax work experience, such as participation in VITA or completion of a tax internship. Students with no tax work experience are welcome to apply but will be admitted to the class based on availability. Competitive applicants will be invited for an interview. Following the interview students will be notified whether they are admitted to enroll in the course.
The Department of Accounting is currently open for in-person service Monday - Friday from 8:00am-5:00pm.
