@scarlett5477, I'm curious about something. If you were to combine all your credits in one or two bachelor degrees, would that not solve the problem of CPA board requiring the credits on an official transcript? CPA boards in most states in the USA want a degree. I realize your state is different by allowing your total number of credits to be used.
Here's an additional perspective. What happens if Maine changes their policy and in order to be a CPA, you must have a minimum of a bachelors degree? What happens if you want to work for a company that requires a 4-year degree? What if you need to move out of Maine and to a state that requires a 4-year degree to be a CPA?
You're so close to obtaining your BS, why not just complete it? At some point, you will probably want to advance your career and even if the above-mentioned scenarios do not come to fruition, how can you go wrong by getting your degree? What doors could be closed without it?
