Professional Examination Requirements:


Students planning to take a professional examination, such as the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam or Certified Management Accountant (CMA) exam, may need to complete additional courses to meet state eligibility requirements.

Students preparing to take the CPA examination in Arkansas should follow the 120-hour curriculum and complete an additional 30 hours of electives to satisfy the state’s 150-hour academic eligibility requirement. Within the 150 hours, the student must include 30 hours of upper-level accounting courses with grades of C or better in each course. Students may choose from a variety of options to meet the 150-hour educational requirement. For example, a student may (1) complete an additional minor area of emphasis in business; (2) complete a minor in a non-business field, such as English or political science; or (3) complete an individualized supplementary plan of study developed with the faculty advisor. Students preparing to take the CPA examination should consult with their faculty advisor about other requirements that may relate to selected electives.
