Online Accounting Courses

The Accounting and Information Management (AIM) area currently offers a number of courses online. These online courses are available to all students whether they are doing most of their coursework online or on campus.

Students who are preparing to take the CPA exam should be aware that the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy requires that 15 of the 30 hours of accounting required to sit for the CPA exam must be completed on campus. Students may transfer up to 12 hours of approved coursework from another institution.

Students who want to transfer credit for courses they plan to take at another institution must be pre-approved early in the semester before they wish to complete the course. Students residing outside of Texas should check with their respective state boards of public accountancy to learn the requirements for sitting for the CPA exam.

The titles of the AIM courses that are taught online are provided in the table below. The table also indicates when the courses will be available and whether the courses qualify for credit toward the 30 hours of accounting or 3 hours of ethics required by the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy.
