I am going to take 16 courses on study.com including financial accounting, finance, information systems, etc. I will take another two courses taxation and audit in TESU.
I wouldn't think so. Being on a TESU transcript should be enough. In fact, you can't even tell by my transcript which credits are and are not part of the degree.

I'm surprised that you need so many courses since you already passed the CPA exams, but since you are going to take courses with TESU, I think you'll be fine since MA does not absolutely require a BS in Accounting.
Since you're going to take two courses with TESU, maybe it makes more sense to just take CLEP exams and CSU Global exams, which only cost $250 apiece.
davewill- according to what I cited a few posts back, scarlett would also have to provide a transcript from study.com.

Yeh I learned all by myself for those CPA exams. I sit for Maine which only require very few accounting credits for taking the exams.
These are what I have been told:
--If you take courses that are transferred into a four year school and they are listed and earned credit on the US regionally/nationally accredited school transcript then they should be acceptable.
--Thanks a lot for replying to me! Do I need to get a four-year degree to make the transferred credits into TESU work? It is a four year regionally accredited university.
--Just the official transcript is fine you do not have to earn a degree from that school.

Sounds like the credit bank will work then. Good deal.

Not by my reading. I wouldn't consider Study.com an "institution". I'd only supply both if asked.

Thanks for all your kind help! I am on my way to those credits now. Sorry to bother you guys again. Neither Study.com nor TESU offer this accounting course--"Auditing" . TESU has it for $525/credit. Does anyone happen to know some cheap auditing online courses? or any cheap online course program should work.
RE: Regionally accredited college accepting online credit transfer - Yenisei - 06-05-2018
I think the least expensive would be the CSU Global challenge exam ($250). Alternatively, the University of North Alabama has one for (I think) $535 that is actually a CPA review course. Either will be very easy for someone who has already passed AUD.
RE: Regionally accredited college accepting online credit transfer - scarlett5477 - 06-05-2018
Thank you Yenisei! The CSU CBE is an exam not a course. I need to check with NASBA to see if it qualifies. These are the least expensive ones? God, $535 are still quite expensive compared to Study.com
Maybe it is because Study.com is too cheap.
RE: Regionally accredited college accepting online credit transfer - davewill - 06-05-2018
Definitely check. I would think that putting it on your TESU transcript would work if they didn't want to take it directly from CSU.

These would also be on a RA transcript, so you don't have to pay the money to send it to TESU.
