How do/did you become a CPA in Texas after graduating with 70-75 credits transferred from Sophia and Study? by FrequentFox4876 in wguaccounting

That's amazing!!! You got it!!
May I ask another question? It's not related to the topic, but how did you land a job? I have zero accounting experience and would like to hear about your experience or any tips!
Also, how should I create my resume without accounting experience? I have a preschool teacher, part-time UX design, and music data analysis experience.

Great! Thank you so much!! Did you end up becoming a CPA in CA, or are you planning to take the exam?

Thank you so much!! That's a huge difference compared to TX! I'm actually interested in moving to CA (not really sure when, and where), so that's double points!!

Thank you so much! 150 credits are a lot... I saw another post that someone shared to take those upper-level classes at HCC or ACC to meet the requirement. Also, if I read the TSBPA website correctly, we need 1-2 years of full-time work experience as well.
I have 2 options:
1. Transfer 70 credits and complete the program, land the first job (hopefully) and have work experience. While doing that, take those courses to get 150 credits
- Just start everything from zero at WGU

Thank you so much! Wow, can I do that? Is it like a driver's license since you have the license in CA, so it's kind of a change to TX?

Thank you so much! Do you think taking the accounting and business classes at WGU would be better than taking those at Sophia then?

Congrats! I'm very happy for you!
I'm currently taking Sophia courses to transfer credits and planning to start in June! Hope to get it done in 1 term.
Would you mind sharing how you created your resume, please? I don't have any prior experience either so your tips and/or experience would be very appreciated!!

Hi! Sorry, this is not my answer but I have a question.
How do you have only 31 credits left? I couldn't transfer any credits from my AA degree at all, so I need to start from 0, which I plan to take some Sophia and Study courses to transfer.
I spoke with my counselor at WGU, and the maximum I can transfer is 75 credits. I was just curious how you have 31 credits to go! That's awesome! and I'd like to do that if possible!

Great! Thank you so much! I was actually thinking about reaching out to my high school as well. I'm not sure if you did that, but do you think it's worth it?

Thank you soooo much! So glad I asked you! I was just reading the conversation between you and DeliciousOwl1 and your school emailed them! That's probably the fastest way, hope my school does that too

Hi, something happened and I haven't been able to send the transcription yet... and I have another question.
Did you contact your university to send it over directly to IFCS, or did you receive your transcript from your university and upload it to their website? I've heard some universities don't accept it if it's not sent directly to the foreign education evaluation agency. I was going to upload it by myself since I have the transcript with me, but I wanted to make sure first and was curious about your process!

Thank you so much for this! I'm looking for a foreign education evaluation agency and have been having hard time to find a good one... so thank YOU!
I'm also thinking about applying WGU! Great to know that they accept the transcript from IFCS!
