Eligibility rules
The program page does not say whether the online option requires campus visits. Ask the school before you apply — missing information is not “no requirement”.
A school describing a program as supporting CPA preparation does not establish eligibility for every applicant in every state, and this directory does not label any program “CPA eligible”. Check your own state board's current rules before you enrol. Accounting degrees and CPA requirements
