Also, if you are allowed (and want) to take proficiency exams for this degree and licensing rules, use the Student Guide to Credit by Exam to match tests to the categories and requirements. It will also be easier if you choose exams that match your interests than if we try to guess what you might like.

Thanks after checking it out I put this together. I'm having a hard time finding courses for the cpa requirement so I think I'll switch to the regular accounting degree and satisfy the rest of the requirements through b&m unless anyone can help me out with those. And if anyone has any cheaper or easier ways to complete any of the courses that would be great. Thanks.

Hopefully, you can find a degree plan to follow for the CPA or Accounting section.

For this part "Remaining Arts and Sciences Requirement 13.00 - classes at excelsior", are you required to take classes at EC because of a special enrollment deal? If not, you can choose any exams that count as Humanities, Social Science, History, Math or Natural Science.

For this part "Any Collegiate-level Study 7.00", you can choose anything from above or Applied Professional. It is a free elective section.
