Preflight playground
Must include financial, managerial/cost, taxation, auditing, and accounting information systems. Subject-area coverage is decided by TSBPA.
30/24 hours, but 2 of 10 course(s) matched by title only — verify syllabus: MATH 1324 Mathematics for Business and Economics; BSTAT 3321 Business Statistics. Must span economics, finance, marketing, management, business law, business communications, and computer/quantitative areas.
No qualifying coursework detected. Part of the 24 business hours. Shown as its own category because it is the single most common silent gap — candidates assume a general speech/writing course counts and it often does not.
3/3 hours, but 1 of 1 course(s) matched by title only — verify syllabus: PHIL 3306 Business Ethics. A qualifying ethics course. Whether a specific course counts is determined by TSBPA.
Short by 60 semester hours. Texas requires 150 semester hours for licensure (developmental/sub-1000-level courses are excluded automatically). You may sit for the Uniform CPA Exam with fewer hours. Remedial and PE-activity hours may also be excluded by TSBPA — verify borderline coursework.
This preflight is NOT an official determination. The Texas State Board of Public Accountancy (TSBPA) makes all final decisions, including whether specific course content counts.
UNKNOWN means evidence is incomplete — we never auto-classify ambiguous coursework. Provide syllabus proof or request TSBPA review.
Each rule cites its source, the date it was last verified, and a content hash. Re-verify before submitting to TSBPA.
