Online accounting courses

Our accounting courses do not lead to licensure as a CPA. So before enrolling, please check with your state accountancy board, because each state sets the standards required to be eligible to take the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam and apply for licensure or certification as a CPA.

Each state sets forth standards required to be eligible to take the CPA exam and apply for licensure or certification as a CPA. While the courses are designed with consideration for the standards proposed by the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA®), University of Phoenix cannot, and will not, provide any assurance that completion of these courses will allow a successful student to qualify within the student’s specific jurisdiction. Potential applicants should check with the appropriate organization within their jurisdiction to determine if the courses meet the requirements to qualify for examination in that specific jurisdiction. States frequently change their requirements for examination. There is no assurance that at the time of course completion the specific jurisdiction’s requirements will be consistent with the requirements at the time of admission.

Our accounting courses use Connect and MyEducator automated exams to test student knowledge learned in accounting classes online. These platforms also provide multi-media resources for accounting students and a more personalized digital learning experience.

Transferability of credit is at the discretion of the receiving institution. It is the student’s responsibility to confirm whether or not credits earned at University of Phoenix will be accepted by another institution of the student’s choice. If you have a question contact us at 866-354-1800.
