UNIVERSITY EXEMPTIONS RULES & REGULATIONS

There are sixteen academic courses a student must complete in order to be eligible to write the UFE. These courses are detailed on the course descriptions.

Contact ASCA for exemption information.The School will grant an exemption for courses 1 through 11 for equivalent university courses which have been successfully completed. Some courses which are not part of the Commerce or Business Administration programs (e.g. economics) may also qualify for exemption. If in doubt, please check with the School.

To receive an exemption from a core area course (i.e. financial accounting, auditing, management accounting, finance, accounting theory and taxation), a minimum grade must be achieved. The minimum grades listed are based on the grading scale used by the university and not intended to reflect the degree of difficulty of the courses.

In cases where a student has several course marks from university at a minimum grade level, the School reserves the right to designate those courses for which exemptions are granted.

Most universities recognize ASCA courses for transfer credits. Contact ASCA for a list of these, or speak to your university's Registrar for more information.

The Professional courses (i.e. Module 1, Module 2, Module 3, Module 4, and The Finalist Preparation Program) must be completed through the School.

Students must have completed courses 1 through 3 at university before they will be permitted to register with the program. Since the School does not offer courses 1 through 3 they should be completed at the university level prior to registering with the program. For students who are unable to take the courses at university through lecturer, they are available through correspondence. Contact the School office for details.

Details of courses taken at the post graduate level and from universities outside the Atlantic Provinces must be submitted to the School and exemptions will be determined on an individual basis. Please check with the School regarding evaluation fees.
