I am interested in pursuing a Massachusetts non-reporting CPA license.

I did an MBA, and I during this time I think I accumulated 5+ credit hours in accounting courses.

I believe that Massachusetts requires 21 semester hours of accounting at the graduate level, so I am quite short in hours of accounting study.

So I am thinking about taking Kaplan University’s online “Graduate Certificate in Accounting” (as I have a relative that works there so I can take the course for free).

I think this will give me 16 additional quarter credit hours towards the accounting requirement ?

Do you think that through this course I will meet Massachusetts’s requirements for semester hours of accounting ?

Or anybody that was successful in getting any similar online accounting certificate program (like Keller) approved as hours of accounting study ?

Wendy, you need to call the mass board. I think the credits would count, but would hate to see you invest the time if I was wrong. Such questions are really better left to the officials than a message board.

FAR- 77
AUD -49, 71, 84
REG -56,75!
BEC -75

Massachusetts CPA (non reporting) since 3/12.
