The College of Business Administration was formally created on March 22, 1963, through BOR Resolution No. 75. It offered a program leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Business Administration primarily to provide students the necessary education and training for business employment and entrepreneurship in the MINSUPALA REGION. From the start of its operations, the college initially offered only two academic programs: BSBA majoring in Economics and BSBA majoring in Marketing.
In 1976 and 1985, the BSBA major in Accounting and BSBA major in Management were introduced and implemented, respectively. Currently, the college offers four (4) curricular programs – BS in Accountancy, BSBA majoring in Business Economics, BSBA Entrepreneurial Marketing, and BSBA Human Resource Management. Accounting as a course started as a mere major in a Bachelor’s degree for Commerce or Business Administration. DECS Order No. 5 was issued in early 1990, elevating Accounting from a mere major to a distinct course – Bachelor of Science in Accountancy. The college first implemented its BS in Accountancy program during the school year 1993-1994 and underwent revisions in 1999. In response to the need for a more relevant education and to elevate the program to a higher standard for the entry course to the profession, a System-wide CBA Curriculum Consultative Assembly was held on January 24, 2007 at MSU-IIT, Iligan City.

The curriculum was discussed, deliberated, and unanimously approved by the three (3) System Campuses – MSU Marawi, MSU-IIT, and MSU-General Santos. The justification changing the college name is primarily based on the consideration that professional identity is a crucial motivating factor in ensuring the success of the accountancy education program. Therefore, it is proposed that the profession itself be included in the name or title of the college. Moreover, CHED Memorandum Order (CMO) No. 3, Series of 2007 emphasized that since Accountancy is now a distinct course and is no longer under the BSBA program, it can be included in the name of the college. On July 25, 2007, the system-wide change in the college name from College of Business Administration to College of Business Administration and Accountancy was finally approved through BOR Resolution #102 Series of 2007.
