    Hi,

    I know it is possible to start Finance Masters whilst completing the ACCA Professional level. I wanted to know, if there are universities that will let you start MBA whilst completing ACCA level 3.

    To note that I do not hold any degree. Only ACCA.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Well, from what I have come across uptil now, is that the accredited universities require work experience and a bachelor’s degree(or equivalent) in order to be eligible for the MBA programme.

    So honestly, I don’t know about any accredited universities that take you in for their postgraduate course without being ACCA Qualified.

    But there is this MSc in Professional Accountancy from University of London that you can do even after you have completed your Skills levels papers.

    On the contrary, only If you are have completed your ACCA qualification and have become a member then you become eligible to get into the MBA programme.

    Take a look at this
    https://www.accaglobal.com/my/en/qualifications/glance/mba/how.html

    However, there is something that I must bring to your attention…not all accredited universities consider ACCA as equivalent to bachelor’s and so if you want to get into their post graduate course they ask you to get a bachelor’s degree first… How strange it may sound but that’s true… I have myself have come across this…
    I don’t know whether it is a marketing strategy for students to get into their undergraduate courses or maybe because their university works on a different curriculum and not the British curriculum… I don’t really know…Just make sure that that you look into this when you choose a university.

    Hope that helps.
