I'm going to need a Cost Accounting class to get into an MS in Accounting program but since it isn't an area of interest for me, I just want the easiest possible class for credit I can find. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Before answering your question, here's a question for you: Can this to be ACE/NCCRS or do you need RA credits? If ACE/NCCRS, then StraighterLine, Study.com have options for Cost Accounting. For RA, your local college / university would be the best bet, unless you're looking for online classes out of state.

Have you looked at a local community college? They may be a cheap option.

Community college won't work since I just moved to a new state and don't qualify for in-state tuition.
Straighterline's Managerial Accounting (which transfers to TESU as Cost Accounting) is kind of hard from what I've heard. I might have to go with it, though.
ACE/NCCRS credit will work for me because TESU will take it- I'd just have them swap out Forensic Accounting in the Accounting AOS for Cost Accounting.
