Look at a state or community college for intermediate accounting. Worst case do something like Grand Canyon university online

Local (to you) community college is the way to go! Cheap and hopefully a good professor. I went to a private school and took some classes in the summer at a community college and the professors there were soooo much better than the private college.

Also see if your local community college offers the course. You might have to pay international student rates for tuition but that might still be cheapest option

I was short an accounting class when I first applied for the CPA exam. I fulfilled the requirement by taking an asynchronous online course from University of Phoenix.
