Let's say I graduate with a non-vocational bachelor's degree (history, math) - can I apply and get into a master's accounting program? Or is this limited to administration degrees? How about finance?

The Master of Accounting program at The Ohio State University provides you with a broader and deeper understanding of how accounting functions within an organization. This is not a fifth year of technical accounting education.Creating the best prepared and most qualified job seekers is the number one goal of the Fisher College of Business Career Management Team.

You could try looking up a few programs and seeing what they require - here are the requirements to enter the masters in accounting program at UMass Amherst, for example. They require a minimum of 18 credit hours in accounting and 24 credit hours in business courses. http://www.isenberg.umass.edu/accounting/Graduate/MSA/Applying/ So no, it doesn't look like you can just jump into a masters program without the background.

Absolutely you can. For admission, most Master of Accounting programs require a few undergrad accounting classes (and possibly a few other business classes like economics). Look at the requirements of the program you're interested in. All you would need to do is take the required classes, and then apply. Master of Finance programs will typically require students to have a business related undergrad degree, or a degree in other quantitative fields, like computer science, physics, or math. Best of luck!
