I have 6 credits left to take as I need courses in audit and taxation which I plan on fulfilling with the courses below.
TECEP-Federal Income Taxation
CSU Global-Auditing
When all is said and done I should 27 credits in accounting.
My concern though is that the CLEP, TECEP's, and Study.com courses will not be accepted in the 24 credit requirement to sit the the CPA exam, since they are not from an accredited source. So its possible that you only have 9 of the 24 credits needed. You need to check with your state accounting board to see if any of the credit-by-exam courses will count.
I'm currently pursuing an accounting degree from TESU, so I'm really in the same place. I'm considering going for a masters after TESU to be able to sit for the CPA. If I had it to do over again I would have chosen a different route, I think.
