CPA EXAM SYLLABUS

Here is a quick overview about the CPA exam syllabus. A CPA requires a broad spectrum of knowledge and proficiency in it. So, the entire CPA exam syllabus is broken down into 4 sections, each section dealing with a body of related knowledge. Each of this section has its own syllabus and exam which you need to be proficient in, to crack the exam. The 4 sections of the CPA exam are as follows.

2.    Financial Accounting and Reporting (FAR)

3.    Regulation (REG),

4.    Business Environment Concepts (BEC)

CPA ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA – INDIA

Most state boards of accountancy require a minimum of 150 hours of post-secondary education from a regionally accredited institution. This typically equates to a Master’s degree.

In case my opening paragraph isn’t clear enough. There are 55 state boards offering the CPA license and to be eligible for writing exam for their licence, you must meet the CPA eligibility requirements set by that state board.

Most state boards also require a minimum number of college credits in various accounting topics and business law. So if you want to become a CPA by first passing the CPA Exam, plan on obtaining a Bachelor’s degree in accounting (typically at least 120 semester hours) as well as a Master’s degree in accounting or taxation (typically at least 30 semester hours).

If you are a candidate from India, planning to take the CPA exam with a B.Com. You are, unfortunately, ineligible to do so. To be able to write the CPA exam, you should, in addition to the B.Com have a masters degree that covers the rest of 30 credits. You can do this by joining a distance learning program of a recognized university.

The U.S. CPA Exam is administered internationally as a service to U.S. citizens living abroad and foreign nationals, as well as in response to the escalating international demand for the U.S. CPA license. In recent years, Indian candidates are among the largest groups of international candidates who have traveled to the U.S. to take the CPA Exam. Opening the CPA Exam in the Middle East to Indian candidates increases their testing options.

The international administration of the Exam, which is offered in English, is the same as the U.S. Exam administered by the AICPA, NASBA, and Prometric in the United States. 

Licensure requirements for international candidates are the same as for U.S. CPA candidates. Along with passing the Uniform CPA Examination, international candidates must meet education and professional experience requirements as mandated by U.S. Boards of Accountancy.
