    Hello,

    I have several credits from a U.S. regionally accredited CC, and am wanting to transfer to an online degree program for general business, or accounting/finance.

    I have a set criteria that I am looking for.

    One, costs is not an issue, as I am eligible for loans, but would like it to be no more than 200-350 per credit range.

    Two, I am trying to improve the GPA, and have a hard time getting too many A's. (90 percent is hard to reach consistently for me),

    I can score consistently in the 85-88 range on my courses, but not if a school only awards A, B, C, or D, and I get two classes at 89 percent, and one at 78, that is two B's, and a C, instead of two B+, and a C+. This makes a world difference for one's gpa.

    Therefore I am looking for a reputable online school, or B&M school with online degrees, that awards + and - grades.

    I am wanting to eventually become a CPA in California, so schools with great variety in Accounting courses is preferred.

    Any help on this is greatly appreciated, thank you!

    If your goal to is become a CPA, you first need to check the CPA requirements in California. Some states require AACSB business/accounting courses in order to become a CPA.

    California does not. In California, you need 120 hrs, bachelor's degree, either NA or RA, and 24 hrs in Business, 24 hrs in Accounting.

    I recommend Peru State College's online BS in accounting.
