Help with where to go next

[RiverM]

Hi all,

Just got the Pierpont BOG AAS in information systems. My spreadsheet has me at around 96 credits/15 RA.

I'm looking at going towards an accounting degree, specifically I was looking at UMPI or SNHU's Forensic Accounting concentration they offer. I am a first responder and am getting more into the computer and fraud investigations, hence this combination of degrees. Worth noting, I do live in New Hampshire, so the SNHU name is pretty good around here.

So, I'm wondering if anyone has any better suggestions than the SNHU degree. Are there any cheaper certificates or other programs with a "forensic accounting" concentration which would make it faster/easier/cheaper to do the UMPI degree and then a certificate as well?


Here's my spreadsheet so far with the SNHU degree requirements: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...ue&sd=true

Here's what I've got for courses so far: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1...sp=sharing
Couldn't get the table to work for those courses, so linking my spreadsheet.

Thank you all in advance! This forum is awesome!!

I don't remember seeing any forensic accounting certificates, but that doesn't mean that there aren't any. However, most worthwhile certificates are going to cost several thousand dollars. It would likely wind up costing you more to go to UMPI first, then get a certificate from somewhere. So, you might as well just go to SNHU in the first place.
