Sophia - principals of finance or financial accounting? - cclocks8 - 09-17-2022
I'm trying to complete credits before I apply to umpi. When I looked up the equivalencies on the wiki, it just lists accounting. Which one should I take? Or should I do both?

Sophia doesn't have Principals of Accounting or Managerial Accounting. They only have Financial Accounting. Which, until recently, was just called Accounting.

You're right, I'm sorry - I meant principals of finance or financial accounting!

Principles of Finance and Financial Accounting are 2 separate courses, and you can do both. Prin of Finance will come in as an Elective IIRC - but it can't hurt to have the knowledge for when you take the course at UMPI.

Principles of Finance transfers a LL business elective.
Financial Accounting transfers as BUS150.
Which degree are you going for?
RE: Sophia - principals of finance or financial accounting? - Ideas - 09-17-2022
Principles of finance would be easier.

Sophia.org courses are not proctored; I would take both the Accounting and Finance course if you're needing extra credits and knowledge for your business degree, especially if it's a requirement.
