Hiya Ninjas!
I need some extra creative thinking from this forum.
I have 166 credit hours across 31 years and 6 universities (don’t ask!).
However, when I did the CA self-assessment, I seem to be 4.33 semester credits shy of the extra “Accounting Study” now required.
“Accounting Study” can comprise Assurance, Attestation, Bookkeeping, Cost and QuickBooks.

I would LOVE to have this wrapped up by December so I don’t have to add on additional classes when CA changes the requirements yet again.

Has anyone had luck with independent study/alternative credit programs?
Online, continuous enrollment, distance learning, self-paced?
The local community colleges near me are completely full (even online).
I am running out of time and choices and really wish I had a mentor to just plug me into a program.
Thanks for any and all suggestions!

Try Coastline college in Fountain Valley where I got my AA. They have 4 online accounting classes that start in October and are open.

ACCT C106 – Excel for Accounting – 2 units
ACCT C111 – Advanced QuickBooks – 2 units
ACCT C114 – Intermediate Accounting 3 (whatever that is) – 3 units.
ACCT C130 – VITA 1 Tax – 1 unit

There's your units right there.

If you prefer Golden West college online in Huntington Beach, they got Forensic Accounting in October – 3 units.
Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa online has ACCT A102 – Managerial Accounting – 4 units, and ACCT A110 – Accounting Info Sys 1 – 3 units.

They're in the same district so one application covers all three. My AA came from Coastline but I took classes at all three.

Studying for Ethics exam

In the same boat here. Just need 3 semester units but cant seem to find a school that offers accounting ethics. I assume you have to be licensed BY 12/31/2016 to not have to take accounting ethics? Or is it if you pass all four before 12/31/2016?

I think you will have to send your license application including all required documents by 12/31/2016.
