Hello everyone! I’m one month away from getting my one year experience, so I decided to get started on the application process now (or at least prepare for it). But my situation is a little unique and I’m not sure what to do. Any help would be much appreciated 🙂

1) I sat for the exam at 120 hours. Last year, I completed my masters giving me the needed 150 hours. If they already have my undergrad transcripts when I applied to sit for the exam, do I need to resend them or just my transcripts post grad?

2) My masters was in Finance, not accounting. Granted I took enough accounting specific courses in the curriculum to meet the requirements, but I was wondering if there were any extra steps I needed to do since my masters wasn’t in accounting. The masters program is from a reputable business school.

3) I did a year a BC law school, where I did take some courses that could potentially meet the general “business law” requirement. I have enough credits and am 99% certain my undergrad and masters degree has me covered. But I was wondering if I should send my law school transcript just in case one of the courses I thought would apply fell through? Would NY even accept it?

Again, any info would be a lot of help. The instructions on the official website are just making me more confused.

Thanks!

I'm also going through the same route with NY. since they granted you to sit under 120 rule, it means you have met the requirements for the major categories, auditing, find acc. Blaw, etc. So all you need now is 30 credit hours more to get your license. I would just send your master degree transcript and you should be all set. They already have your uundergad transcript, why would you want to send again?

Thank you for the reply! I was just asking because I wasn't sure and I didn't want to go back and forth with them on little things like that.

Thanks again, that just made things a LOT easier for me.
