I have about 4 classes left to get my B.S. in General Business and plan to get my additional 24 accounting courses at my community college. For California, and many other states I have read about, they don't allow the 24 units of business and 24 units of accounting courses to come from CLEP or other type of exams. Those courses must be completed by college that is either Regionally or Nationally accredited. On my other courses not pertaining to those core requirements, I'm still trying to find out if my other CLEP exams would count.
When I spoke with a lady at the New York Board of Accountancy they said that they'll accept Clep credit for the business requirements. The original poster should verify this though but I'm all but 100% certain.

"You are your own worst enemy. You waste precious time dreaming of the future instead of engaging in the present. Since nothing seems urgent to you, you are only half involved in what you do. The only way to change is through action and outside pressure. Put yourself in situations where you have too much at stake to waste time or resources - if you cannot afford to lose, you wonât. Cut your ties to the past; enter unknown territory where you must depend on your wits and energy to see you through. Place yourself on âdeath ground,â where your back is against the wall and you have to fight like hell to get out alive." -The 33 Strategies of War[/SIZE][/SIZE]
