Fastest/Cheapest way to obtain college credit for CPA License (Massachusetts) - Fastestwaytopcpa - 10-18-2022
Hello,
I am looking to see if anyone has experience getting ACE credits (sophia/study/etc) onto a college transcript after they graduated for the purposes of just adding a few more credits for your CPA License. I've been looking into TECU, Excelsior, Charter Oak, etc. I've even spoke to some of these colleges and they don't understand or can guide me on how/if this works. Goal is to enroll at a college, transfer all my ACE & CLEP credits and obtain a transcript for my state's Board (Massachusetts).
I graduated with an undergrad in accounting about 10 years ago (127 credits) and just recently passed the CPA exam. I have achieved all the necessary upper level business/accounting courses and now only require any college credit. My goal now is to find the quickest and cheapest way to obtain my remaining 23 credits. I just recently discovered the study.com/straighterline/etc credits and was curious if anyone here has gone this track and what they're experience was. My goal is to take zero classes at a college and just use a combo of Sophia.com & CLEP (mostly Sophia though).
Thank you,
CC

Excelsior, TESU, take your pick for 'credit banking' by applying to a program and ordering a transcript... I've merged a couple of threads together and you happened to have posted a very similar question right above my 'answer'. I will link you to that answer here: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-How-to-get-ACE-credits-such-as-Sophia-on-official-college-transcript?pid=376984#pid376984
