Hi,
I am writing to inquire about the educational credits that the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) and Oxford Brookes University partnership may provide towards the US Certified Public Accountant (CPA) designation.
I completed my degree from Oxford Brookes University through the ACCA partnership and I am an ACCA qualified accountant; am curious about how it aligns with the requirements for the US CPA.
Any information or guidance you could provide on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
Also, if ACCA+BSc(H) doesn’t qualify for AICPA; Does additional degree MSc in Professional Accountancy from University of London help?
Regards,
JamesBased on previous posts (put CPA into the search function https://opentuition.com/search-opentuition), there seem to be no exemptions/recognition of ACCA for US CPA.

You’re correct—based on the available information, it seems there are no direct exemptions or formal recognition of ACCA for the US CPA. Each state’s CPA requirements vary, so it’s always a good idea to check with the specific State Board of Accountancy for accurate guidance.
Is it possible to seat for US CPA exams from the UK or one needs to travel to USA to write the exams?
The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) has partnered with Prometric, a testing service, to offer the CPA exams at various international locations. The exam is available in many countries, including Canada, Japan, China, the United Arab Emirates, and several others.
However, there are specific requirements and eligibility criteria that vary by jurisdiction, so it’s important to check with the local state board of accountancy or the jurisdiction you plan to apply through for the most accurate and up-to-date information.
