I just thought I would chime in with my experience with the California board. I did not take any courses from study.com or straighterline, however I did take one clep and a couple of dsst tests. I also have portfolio credits. I never heard from the board about those credits, and I am officially qualified to sit for the CPA exam in California with those credits on my transcript. The qualification occurred before I finished my master's and I did not submit any credits for my master's in order to qualify.
BSBA/Accounting TESU (2016). MSA UIUC (2018).
Need help with portfolios? I earned 18 credits at TESU through portfolio evaluations. Nine of those were for upper level accounting courses. My advice for PLA/portfolios: TESU portfolio tips The first post has the Portfolio Checklist I created. Page ten has the actual narrative I wrote to receive credit for ACC-440.
Using Straighterline's Financial Accounting as a substitute for TESU's Intermediate Accounting I? Don't do it if you are an accounting major and/or want your CPA license. They are not the same course and I think TESU has erred in accepting the SL course as Intermediate I. I made this discovery here: Intermediate Accounting II.
