I emailed the board if they accepted alternative credits/ACE and got this response.
"Alternative units can only be accepted if they are posted on a transcript issued by a degree-granting college, university, or other institution of learning recognized by a United States regional institutional accrediting agency or a national accrediting agency. Additionally, these course title and units earned must be specified on the transcript."
In the California CPA exam handbook it states
"The CBA highly recommends that you request official transcripts from all institutions at which you completed coursework, since many college and university transcripts only indicate the total transfer units accepted and do not list the titles of the individual courses."
So does UMPI list the course title for credits from sophia?
I would suggest coming up with a plan to meet all the CPA requirements after receiving your UMPI degree, so you have everything on one transcript.
So for example, you could double major to get to 150 total credits.
Also, CA requires 10 credits worth of ethics, including 3 credits of accounting ethics.

I would make plans to transfer in any requirements needed for the CPA.
