I have a BS in accounting and worked in the field for years. There are no complex equations in accounting. If you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide, you can do accounting. Accounting isn't about math so much as it is about organizing data.
Thanks! I've seen a lot of people say this, hopefully things go well. Did you attend UMPI?

Not sure if it helps but before that I got my AA from a community college. The classes are my community college is on the transcript from the university since I transferred in. So I only requested the university to send official transcripts through parchment to UMPI.
I will soon be doing classes from Sophia and study to transfer in more classes the max which is 90 I think. I just wanted confirmation that all gen classes will be waived since I have a bs already? 
I attended wgu for accounting but wasn't learning as much as I thought. I did well with online learning at my local university but I found the format of the exams plus paranoia and anxiety of being proctored to not well suited for me. Anyone want to describe what the exams, essays or projects are like the upper level accounting classes?

You need to send ALL of your transcripts to UMPI not just the one for your bachelor's degree. You'll be waived from the GEC if you graduated from an RA college in the US. You can transfer in 500 credits. Only 90 will apply to your degree. You'll still have to take 30 credits at UMPI as the minimum. There aren't any exams at UMPI. All of the coursework is papers, projects, PowerPoints, type of assignments.
I thought so. Thanks I'll request my cc transcripts to be sent. I saw a post where someone said the transcript should be emailed or sent by Clearinghouse because UMPI doesn't accept from parchment, any truth to this? My schools only use parchment.
