Carson Elliott
Aldrich CPA Firm
During sophomore year, I was deeply anxious about whether or not I wanted to pursue a CPA certification, because 150 credit hours are required to be CPA eligible, and the best-case scenario would be to get those credit hours within the time of my four-year degree. My faculty advisor encouraged me and explained to me how it could be done. By the grace of God, I graduated with 150 credit hours, making me eligible for the CPA exam.
