<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I have an undergrad in Finance and currently work in Accounting. Since I am in a Corporate Accounting position, the CPA would enhance my career towards management.</p>

<p>Should I go back for a MS Accounting, or just get the additional credits at an Undergrad insitution?</p>

<p>Getting the MS Accounting would be costly, I'd have to take the GMAT and apply. </p>

<p>I'm not certain of the requirements to sit for the NY CPA, as it seems unclear. The requirements state 150 credits, but does not specify what the credits should be in. </p>

<p>If I called the NY CPA office would they answer questions and advise what is my cheapest, fastest route to sitting for the CPA exam.</p>

<p>Go to NY state board of accountancy website and look up the education requirements for obtaining the CPA. I just checked it out, and they are very specifically outlined.</p>
