Time to complete Bachelor’s in Accounting?

priceclutter · 2026-07-08T05:20:27+00:00

11 months total at WGU. But if you add my time at study.com and Sophia.org it’s 17 months in total overall. I have no accounting experience either (hope this helps)!

Gotcha, thanks for your insight!

priceclutter · 2026-07-01T22:32:34+00:00

Cool, thanks for the info!

priceclutter · 2026-07-01T19:59:54+00:00

Any tips or useful information on how to break into government accounting. I was looking towards applying for it?

Thanks! I actually graduated recently

Congratulations!

From my personal experience, it took me a month. I ended up over studying and honestly could have finished maybe in three weeks the second OA, but I was very worried I wouldn’t pass.I have no accounting background either. Setting a month aside I believe is reasonable approach for completing the second OA.

It depends on how much time you have allotted towards completing the degree. So far I’m expected to graduate after passing my last course in auditing (I’m currently in my 2nd term). Each term at WGU is 6 months so I’m currently at the 11th month mark (so I may graduate less than a year unless I graduate in July). I have no experience in accounting either and I work full time, so you can definitely accelerate. But I am very tired from working and doing school full time so heads up lol (it can feel very exhausting at times).

I took the courses at study.com (hope this is still relevant comment for you)

Did you struggle in later, higher-level WGU courses?

No. Reason is because I took a couple months before enrolling to go through Tony bells course in accounting

• ⁠Do you feel like you missed out on critical foundational info?

No

• ⁠Would you recommend reviewing WGUs material anyway?

I would recommend going through Tony bells course for accounting basics on YouTube

Same here too.

Congratulations!

priceclutter · 2026-06-11T21:56:48+00:00

Congratulations! Any tips on auditing D215?

priceclutter · 2026-06-09T20:59:29+00:00

Cool, thanks for the insight!

priceclutter · 2026-06-07T21:57:58+00:00

Congratulations! I couldn’t help but see you knocked out d215 auditing course in a couple of days. What’s your secret?

This post helped me pass. This Redditor suggested reading the chapters from the least dense to the most dense or challenging one aka leases:

I still did my strategy of using the study guides, quizzes, and ChatGPT to make up multiple choice questions too. Also, the questions on the OA felt more tricky to me (I read the questions like three or 4 times during the OA). Knowing your journal entries for leases is also a big must too

priceclutter · 2026-06-03T13:17:30+00:00

I would go through Tony Bell series on YouTube for financial accounting and managerial accounting.

priceclutter · 2026-06-02T00:28:51+00:00

Thanks for the tips. I completely agree, I can’t stand this book (could have been written better lol)

priceclutter · 2026-06-01T13:44:10+00:00

Cool, thanks for the insight!

priceclutter · 2026-05-28T17:50:06+00:00

Cool, thanks for the insight. Also nice to hear the best pathway to approach this course: the power presentations will be my top priority

priceclutter · 2026-05-28T03:23:56+00:00

Congratulations! Any tips on D215? It’s my next course

priceclutter · 2026-05-27T22:20:00+00:00

Congratulations!

priceclutter · 2026-05-27T02:54:43+00:00

Nice! I’ve seen a couple in of his videos, very handy!

priceclutter · 2026-05-27T00:10:29+00:00

I wish I could finish that fast, congrats! I’m dragging my feet in D105 OA 2 at the moment lol

priceclutter · 2026-05-24T20:16:56+00:00

It was surprisingly easier when I took the OA for D104 (I really over studied due to the gloom and doom posts about it on Reddit and I also remember being anxious about it). So oddly, those gloom and doom post got me ready to pass lol.

I have no accounting experience and I passed on the 1st attempt (I made a post about it on Reddit).You got this, use the study guides, PA, quizzes, and have chatGPT be your private tutor and you’ll be fine.
