    I fall short of just two courses in “Finance” and “Information Systems”. These courses fall in the required 9 semester hours for business courses; I completed “Business Law” during my undergraduate, and I got a total of 132 credits as an undergraduate. I live in Massachusetts by the way.

    I believe I have to go to grad school for both these courses, but “Does anybody have other advice/or suggestions in this situation?” I would like to start these courses for Spring 2016.

    I reached out to the AICPA, but they haven’t reached out to me yet. I would like to get answer from them asap.

    Also too, I juggled the thought of being a CPA during my undergraduate. I’m going for the CPA now.

    The only time graduate level classes are required in MA is if you're going for a non reporting license (have to have a graduate degree in lieu of auditing experience). Otherwise, they can be undergrad classes, you'll need 150 total credits anyway.
