The forensic accounting minor is going to be challenging to find as it's not a super common focus. UMPI doesn't offer that focus but they do offere 2 degrees in accounting. How many more classes do you have at SNHU? PUG isn't going to be much easier than SNHU. 15 classes at PUG isn't cheap. They're on a quarter system versus semester schedule. Their degrees are 180 credits because of the quarter system. $371 (plus fees) x 78 credits = $28,938 plus fees. Please do not do that to yourself. That's a lot of debt to take on. Why are you looking to transfer?

I have 23 more classes left to do at SNHU. Looking to transfer as I can only do 1 class a term at SNHU as my FA won't pay for 2 classes.

@tazmommy, Welcome to the board! Hmm, interesting first post - short and sweet, what is it you need help with? We know your basic details, but it's still missing most if not some important info. To help us assist you better... Please update us with a bit more details with the information in the addendum and template here:
https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works
OK, so you updated the post while I was typing... I know, I'm slow at typing, anyways... good stuff, we know a bit more info, I suggest moving to UMPI for the BA Accounting instead of SNHU, for the max transfer. Here's the WIKI for UMPI, in here, it'll show multiple degree plan options, select the one for you:
