Reaffirmation of Investment Rating
Holy Family University President Sister Maureen McGarrity, CSFN, PhD, is pleased to announce that the University's public investment grade rating has been reaffirmed during an annual review by the Fitch Rating Agency. This review and determination by Fitch Ratings reinforces the strong foundation that has been established for financial stability, future growth, and development.
Fitch Ratings credit ratings provide an opinion on the relative ability of an entity to meet its financial commitments, such as interest and repayment of principal commitments on issued bonds. The Board of Trustees and Sister Maureen are grateful to all of those individuals whose diligence and hard work were essential to the success of the review and to the University community as a whole for their dedication in effecting the changes needed to sustain this rating. Accomplishments such as this clearly demonstrate our commitment to the mission and underscore once again the "value of family."

MS in Accountancy
Join our Family. Our new MS in Accountancy program provides a pathway to this profession. The career opportunities in the field of accounting are exploding, and there is currently a shortage of qualified accountants in the US. You already possess the business foundation necessary to be successful in our graduate accountancy program. For your convenience, we offer a hybrid format that includes online and face-to-face components on alternating Saturday or weeknight classes.
An accounting program provides a focused career path with strong earning potential. And while we often associate accounting primarily with math, accounting is actually about developing an intuitive understanding of the flow of business transactions. Additionally, our Master of Science inAccountancy program will give you the credits you need to qualify for your CPA license, once you have started your new career path.
