ABOUT THE CPA EXAM
The Uniform CPA Examination measures professional competence and helps to establish the CPA license as evidence of professional qualification. The examination is a 14-hour computer-based test (CBT) with four sections: Auditing & Attestation, Financial Accounting & Reporting, Regulation, and Business Environment & Concepts.
Once candidates are deemed eligible by a board of accountancy, they can take one or more exam sections at a time. They cannot, however, take the same section more than once during any testing window (the quarterly period during which the exams are available). Generally, candidates have 18 months to pass all four sections and retain credit; but check with your state board as some states may differ.

CPA Exam Requirements By State
Foreign Degrees
Applicants who attended or graduated from foreign schools may satisfy the CPA Exam education requirements based upon an evaluation of foreign transcripts by any of the Board-approved foreign credentials evaluation services listed below. It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure the timely submission of the evaluation. Official evaluations must be mailed to the Board directly from the foreign credentials evaluation service. The transcript evaluation must show a course-by-course breakdown. Evaluations mailed with the Application Remittance Form will be returned, unreviewed, to the applicant.
NOTE: Foreign credentials evaluation services do NOT evaluate transcripts from U.S. schools, nor do they forward them to the Board. All U.S. schools must send transcripts directly to the Board. For additional information - Click Here -
