CPA course requirement questions...
Good morning everyone,
I am currently a senior in my Economics undergrad at UC Davis. I will be graduating either Spring 2017 or Dec 2017 (internship or job offer pending.) I feel it would be beneficial to my career to pursue a CPA, as I do enjoy accounting in general, and will make me more competitive (goal is a big four).
Right now I'm trying to plan out my strategy for completing my required courses. Here is a list of queries:
1. Does it matter where I complete the required courses? Obviously it must be accredited. But would it be worth completing the courses through my previous community college (Chabot) or go through UC Davis Extension (the CPA Exam Track Certification Program). The community college would be cheaper, but education value the UC Davis Extension may be better.
2. Does my BA in Economics satisfy the 24 semester units of business related subjects?
3. For the 20 semester units in accounting study and 10 semester units in ethics study, I am a bit confused exactly what the requirement is saying. Do the courses I take to complete the Accounting Subjects and Business Related Subjects count for these sections?
Any clarification and advice would be greatly appreciated. I do plan to take a CPA review course before I begin my testing. Probably the Wiley CPAexcel.
Thank you, I appreciate your time and effort.
1) Save the money and take the community college courses. I've never heard from anyone that they felt these "Credential Focused" tracks were any more beneficial than the core curriculum.
2) Not familiar with CA CPA rules, but it should.
3) Yes, but you need to ensure you also take Business Ethics and BLaw classes. Audit classes can also meet the ethics portion of these credits.
Use Becker, its more expensive but worth it.
my wife is a CPA- as long as you have the cert no one cares where the classes come from.
