How to get CPA Designation
The Goodman School of Business provides one of the fastest tracks to the CPA designation. When you take the Bachelor of Accounting (BAcc) and Master of Accountancy (MAcc) programs, you’ll learn everything you need to successfully complete the Common Final Exam (CFE).
If you complete the BAcc program, you have two options:
Option 1: Apply to the Goodman MAcc program, which would only take seven months to complete and covers the six CPA preparatory courses.
Option 2: Enter the CPA Professional Education Program (PEP) with advanced standing. The CPA PEP is only offered on a part-time basis and may take up to two years to complete.
