Wiley CPAexcel has partnered with UNA to create a program which allows you to accomplish both these tasks at the same time. The best part of all is that this university offers these CPA courses online so you can take them regardless of which state you live in.
Wiley CPAexcel and UNA
The University of North Alabama has partnered with Wiley CPAexcel to create the UNA Professional Accounting Prep Program.
This course allows you to take up to eight 3-credit hour courses in accounting and business law classes. These are courses that are often required by states to sit for the CPA exam.
The courses in this program are offered online which make it a perfect fit for anyone who has a busy schedule or works a full-time job.
All of the courses in this program are taught by UNA faculty using instructional processes designed by CPAexcel. These faculty members are also available throughout the course to answer your questions and offer additional guidance.
Each class has a specific title which allows you to match them to the course requirements you need fulfilled. For example, AC 361P: Financial Reporting I.
As far as pricing goes, each 3 credit hour course cost $475 USD. This price includes all necessary study material and textbooks.
This course covers both the education requirement needed to sit for the CPA exam along with pre-exam prep. However, you should know that the material covered on the CPA exam that may not be entirely covered by this course. Long story short, you must study additional material outside this course to ensure you pass the exam and become licensed.
Whether or not you’re making a career change or just trying to keep up with the CPA exam requirements, these two courses offer a much appreciated alternative to the traditional options.

Posted at 29 February, 2016 20:55 PMHello all,I have been taking courses through UNA PAPP the last few months (as a NY resident and hopefully NY candidate) and just happened to read this possibly disheartening news on the official NY CPA Licensure site:Accounting Review CoursesAccounting review courses or CPA Exam review courses that are taken for academic credit at a regionally accredited school cannot be accepted toward the 33 semester hour accounting course work requirement. These courses may only be accepted toward the business and/or overall course requirement.Examples of review courses include, but are not limited to, Wiley CPAExcel; Becker’s CPA Exam Review; Bisk Education; and Roger CPA Exam Review. If the textbook for the course is a review course, it cannot be accepted toward the accounting course work requirementI emailed both UNA and NY CPA board, so just waiting to see!

Posted at 10 May, 2016 12:34 PMHello, I was just wondering if they ever got back to you. . I have the required 150 credits, however, I never took an auditing class. I know these credits don't go toward accounting hours, but do you know if they will satisfy the auditing course requirement?Thanks, Jay

Posted at 27 January, 2016 22:54 PMIs this still valid ? I'm missing 6 accounting credits to sit for the exam. I was considering taking the classes at UNA, but from what I'm reading in the comments section below, they no longer offer course credit - I the correct?

Posted at 3 December, 2015 21:56 PMIs this program a smart way to go even if I have a bachelor's in accounting? I still need 24 credits and this seems like a great deal but I've already taken a lot of classes similar to these throughout my 4 years of college.
