Hey guys, new here. Sorry if this has already been posted, I tried looking but couldn’t find a search feature for the forums.

I am a Tennessee resident and am waiting on my final two scores (AUD and BEC). I am at 140 college credit hours and I’m thinking about going the Community college route. Do I have to make sure any community college classes I take transfer over to my 4 year university? Or are they counted separately?

AUD - 81
BEC - 92
FAR - 92
REG - 89

If you are short credit hours, at this point junior college courses may be a waste of time. Those will only be intro classes and I’m sure you have taken those already. I think there is something on Nasba website or AICPA website that you can find out what classes you are lacking. I wouldn’t waste money on jr college.

Hey! Good question, I went through the same thing. I got 138 credits from undergrad, and ended up taking 12 more from a community college – 4 online classes over the course of two summers. To the best of my knowledge, they can be anything you want, as long as you can then have that transcript sent to the state board. Like Tncincy said, maybe don't take something you have already. And if you still need classes to meet a board requirement (i.e. accounting, business), be extra careful and make sure it'll suffice.

But if you just need 10 generic credits, I'd take classes that genuinely sound interesting to you. The last ones I took were public speaking and criminology.

BEC - 90 (7/19, 8 weeks)
FAR - 78 (10/19, 10 weeks)
AUD - 75 (12/19, 8 weeks)
REG - 90 (7/20, ~12 weeks, split up)

Ethics - 97 (~6 hours to go through the material & take the quiz)
Licensed in Virginia (10/20, ~1.5 weeks to process after submitting everything)

That helps a ton! I was hoping to take some fun classes for once but was afraid something like kayaking wouldn't transfer. I should have mentioned earlier but I already have all the required accounting and general business hours.

AUD - 81
BEC - 92
