Did anyone have majority of foreign credits and a degree from a foreign collage, but some transfer credits from a U.S. college?

I had the same situation that is a Bachelor’s degree from a foreign country and I went to a US university to get Auditing, Federal l taxation, and financial reporting credits.

So did ur foreign credit evaluation recognize that you were eligible for the exam? They told me they'd ignore any U.S. credits, and forward them to the state board. However, the state board said they'll ignore them and only look at the foreign evaluation, which seems like it will be missing my U.S. credits. What happened by u?

First you need to get your credit evaluation sent to the Board, then sent your transcript from US University. Once the board got all transcripts you may call to see if you are eligible or no. the will send an email to explain why you are not eligible.

the board told me that if my foreign evaluation says i'm ineligible, then i'm ineligible. maybe they just don't know what they're talking about. hope so!

They cannot decide because that is not their specialty.

Question regarding official transcripts

Hey guys I would appreciate your insight. I wish to take my cpa and doing shopping for which state board to go with. The real problem is I graduated from a foreign country. My undergraduate was done partly in U.S and partly in a foreign country. The problem stems from the fact I can't provide official transcripts for the coursework done at the U.S school. I took little more than 60 credits in U.S and also took about 20 credits of business courses. Currently, I enrolled in a masters program in Accounting at a U.S school. Looking at my situation and knowing how state boards wants official transcripts from all institutions, which state board will be able to offer me some slack? Your thoughts are welcome folks.
