CPA-related information

Academic qualification, CPA exam eligibility and CPA licensure are three different things, and requirements differ by state board, pathway, applicant background and date. These are statements this school publishes, shown with the jurisdiction they name.
  • Idaho. States that its AACSB-accredited graduate accountancy programs were designed to meet the educational requirements for licensure in IdahoConditions stated: Eligibility in other states depends on that state's requirements, the student's prior undergraduate coursework and the graduate courses takenSource: boisestate.edu · verified October 30, 2026

A school describing a program as supporting CPA preparation does not establish eligibility for every applicant in every state, and this directory does not label any program “CPA eligible”. Check your own state board's current rules before you enrol. Accounting degrees and CPA requirements
