    Can anyone clarify the 2014 California education requirement? The CBA website isn’t very clear, they just send you to a pdf file listing the requirement, but doesn’t say if you can choose one of the 3 color coded pathways or must complete all. I’ve been asking this question for awhile now but someone keeps on deleting my question. Is it taboo to ask or what?

    I think Jeff has been working on the site today. Lots of posts going up and getting deleted. I am right there with you about the requirements. I even emailed the CBA asking if they will look over my transcripts, and they said no not without an active licensing application open. So for now I am rushing to get in my application before 12/31/13, will deal with the rest later.

    There were 3 posts earlier but all of them were blank for some reason.

    From what I deduced you have to complete the licensing requirements by Jan 1 2014 to become licensed under pathway 1 (the one with the 120 credit / 2 year work experience rule).

    Since I have no work experience and I'm basically out of the race to get licensed by 2014 under pathway 1 I'm just doing the exam early on so I never have to worry about it in the future (California candidates never lose credit for passing the exam).

    You just need to complete 1 of the requirements by the deadline, otherwise it'll become the 150 credit + 1 year work experience rule for everyone.

    Let's say you are a business graduate with 120 semester units.

    You took additional accounting course so you have 6 accounting units and met 14 business units. 20 MAXIMUM units total from this group.

    Now I need 10 units in the Ethics Study group to meet the total ADDITIONAL 30 UNITS, correct? (referring to the 150 Units Tip Sheet)

    Thanks in advance!
