    I have a bachelors degree with a major in accountant, I think it only translate to 120 credits. How do I know what other classes I have to take to obtain the additional 30 hours?

    Anyone have any idea whats the cheapest way to approach this? I already passed the CPA exam.

    You need 36 general business credits and 33 accounting credits. Everything above those can be an any subject. If you live in NYC, try CUNY's community colleges for cheap courses. If not LSU Online courses and UCLA extension. NYS accepts the UNA PAPP but only towards the general business not the accounting credits.

    Thank you !

    So once I confirm I have the correct amount of accounting and business credits – I could just get random credits in any subject at bcc or bmcc?

    I'm waiting on someone from NASBA to get back to me about my credits

    Correct. Just make sure they're not duplicate credits. So even though my Advanced Accounting Course covered NFP and Govt ACC, I was still have to take NFP & Govt ACC at BMCC for credit. I also took their Accounting Systems Course (learning quickbooks). UNA courses are super easy. Its basically working through CPA exam review material from Wiley.

    I would like to take the UNA courses seems like a fast way to get the credits.

    I think they offer 8 classes each 3 credits. That would be close to 30.

    The only problem is I would have to make sure there aren't duplicate classes. For example I'm pretty sure I took Financial Reporting 1 and 2 and federal taxation in my bachelor degree coursework at the college I actually went too.
