The problem for me with a traditional PhD is that my master's doesn't import into it. There is a whole other round of courses I need to take for those first couple years. There is very little about accounting in an accounting PhD, at least for the first 2-3 years. Weird but true. So it will be at least 2-3 years longer. For the DBA, I can likely finish it in three years total. Plus for the PhD I would need preparatory courses to even just begin. So realistically it is at least six years. I'm not young any longer. Those additional years matter to me. I appreciate the advice and perspective, but there's just no way I'm going to do a AACSB PhD.
BSBA/Accounting TESU (2016). MSA UIUC (2018).
Need help with portfolios? I earned 18 credits at TESU through portfolio evaluations. Nine of those were for upper level accounting courses. My advice for PLA/portfolios: TESU portfolio tips The first post has the Portfolio Checklist I created. Page ten has the actual narrative I wrote to receive credit for ACC-440.
Using Straighterline's Financial Accounting as a substitute for TESU's Intermediate Accounting I? Don't do it if you are an accounting major and/or want your CPA license. They are not the same course and I think TESU has erred in accepting the SL course as Intermediate I. I made this discovery here: Intermediate Accounting II.
