PROVEN SUCCESS FOR OVER 40 YEARS

The programs instructors emphasized foundational and novel topics based on current AICPA specified content. They had the judgment to identify the appropriate depth of topic coverage, without being superficial. They shared their tips and tricks for fact retention and recall. They were quick to respond to my questions, thorough in their reply, and patient. The instructors relentlessly encouraged, motivated, and shared in my success. Their energy and enthusiasm inspired me to continue, even when I was tired and wanted to give up. James H.

Just wanted to say THANK YOU for providing a fantastic CPA review course! I recently found out that I passed my first two sections: FAR (89) and AUD (95). I am so glad that I decided to take the FAR review course for credit to earn my final accounting hours to sit for the CPA exam. During the semester I would have been taking the one final accounting class, instead I got the credit I needed and passed two sections of the CPA exam. The NIU review is so thorough that I felt very prepared for both sections, despite the time lag since my coursework. Thank you to the whole CPA Review team! Your quality of content, enthusiasm and support are phenomenal! Becky F.
