The thing is, the in person class will be starting January 9th and I haven't taken my accounting classes with Straighterline yet. Do you think 1 month will be enough time to take both Straighterline courses and be prepared for Intermeidate Accounting I at UIU? I have also purchsed this book Accounting Made Simple that I will use to supplement my Straighterline courses and to help me learn the basics of accounting.
Hard to say. It really depends on how quickly you grasp the information. Some people get it right away, for others it takes longer. What did you think of Accounting Made Simple?
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.
