    If I'm understanding you correctly, you meet all the requirements except total credit count. If that's true, then you can take any course you want. I'd look at a course catalog for a nearby college and just see what interests you. Want to take a class in pottery working? Sign language? Science? Whatever you want, you can take it, if you meet all the subject-specific requirements and just lack credit count. (Each state's requirements vary, so not 100% certain from your post if you need additional credits in accounting or business, or just credits in anything.)

    You need to make sure what kind of courses you need in order to meet the requirement of your state. IMO this is your first priority because you would not be want to end up paying less/or taking a course that would not count towards the requirement. An easy way is to check NASBA and see what courses you still need from the courses that you have taken. For example, if you need 30 credits in business, make sure you go thru all your already taken courses and be sure you have 30 credits. Now, if you are certain that you just need ANY credit, then you could take any course. Hope this helps.

    The options are so wide-open that we can't really give you specifics. The only way someone could would be if you were to post a nearby college that you wanted to take classes at, and post your full transcript of what you'd already taken, so that we could go through the entire catalog and list all the classes you haven't taken yet. However, the list we'd make would be hundreds of courses, so probably still not very useful.

    You might try visiting a local college and sitting down with an advisor, showing them your educational requirements and your NASBA evaluation and asking them to help you pick some courses to complete the credits.
