Hey community,

I am new here. but glad to see the strong support here and hope to contribute as well!

I have a few questions. I have done tons of research so I am just curious what some of your opinions/experiences are.

I finish my Master’s in Accounting this December and am hoping to start the Becker review course in January, thereby sitting for all my tests by mid-year. Is this what many students do?

I also have a Class-C misdemeanor I got when I was 17. I was arrested for stealing a drink and a snack at a local grocery store. Theft under $50. It was a very dumb mistake, I was impatient and just walked out with them. I know I need to disclose this but I was wondering if I should wait until the end of the year when it could be expunged or if I have a good chance of getting my application accepted with the misdemeanor on my record. Like I said, I would like to start Becker in Jan and I am afraid if I wait to send my application after its expunged, I might not get it accepted before I start Becker or the first cpa section exam.

For what it’s worth, I have a 3.8GPA in grad school and graduated Cum Laude in undergrad while in many organizations and all that. I did my internship at a Big 4 and received a full-time offer.

Has anybody heard or had any experiences with applying with certain misdemeanors (theft)? I am worried sick!!

I figured it would be good for you if you had a wake up 😉
