Hi,

Here’s the problem. I completed the exam, but I didn’t finish the 150 credit requirements.

I am planning to go back to school to take a MS in Management (an online program), but I can’t tell if those classes go towards the 150 credit requirements!

I was told by NASBA that “To meet the license requirement you would need to complete 19 semester hours in which 3 of those hours are to be in Accounting.”

I am not sure if those 19 credits needs to be business or general credits, but I think I will go back to for a business to be safe!

Anyone knows if the following classes will be consider business class? Or should I just assume classes in business degree are business?

BUS 600 – Organizational Behavior and Leadership

BUS 630 – Business Law and Ethics in the Digital Age

BUS 640 – Accounting for Business Decisions

BUS 650 – Knowledge and Information Systems

BUS 660 – Corporate and International Finance

BUS 670 – Quantitative Decision-Making

BUS 680 – Economics for Business Decisions

Capstone – students must select one of the following four capstone courses:

BUS 696 – Global Virtual Enterprise

BUS 697 – Global Strategic Management

BUS 698 – Applied Business Research

BUS 699 – Thesis

BUS 605 – Leadership Development

BUS 608 – Negotiation and Conflict Resolution

BUS 610 – Strategic Marketing and Socially Responsible Practices

BUS 617 – Workplace Values and Happiness

BUS 620 – Entrepreneurship in a Global Environment

BUS 626 – Current Issues in Global Business

BUS 633 – Managing Diversity in a Global Economy

BUS 644 – Audit Controls and Accounting Failures

BUS 655 – New Media and Electronic Commerce

BUS 685 – Risk Management

PROM 600 – Fundamentals of Project Management

Also, the board told me I will have to pay for license in order for them to evaluate my classes. If I won’t finish this degree in 3 years but I pay now, are they going to keep my profile open?

Thank you everyone!

Why not ask your school's accounting department?

You can ask your state board. They can tell you if the classes overlap with others and if they count towards the credits you need. They have all of your paperwork from when you submitted to take the exam and they can pull up your file quickly and go over the classes with you.

The problem is.. I haven't take those classes yet. I am planning to take them.

Also, this is not an accounting degree. This is a management degree. Since I have a BBA in accounting, I don't see why I want to take another master in accounting. So I take a management degree.

The state will not go over your application until you pay the application fee. Since I having finish the working requirement and the education requirement, I didn't apply for license yet. I won't finish those requirements until 2 years later, and I am afraid before I finish it, the state will already throw away my application.

Anyone know how long NY state will keep your application open without throwing it away?
