    Hello!

    New York State requires 33 hours in accounting, as well as 36 hours in general business electives.

    I was wondering because someone mentioned this to me but I wasn’t sure if they were right:

    Do Business Law and Ethics courses count towards the 33 hours in accounting or just the 36 hours in general business?

    Thank you!
