First-Time Writers (Course-by-Course)Students who have completed all exam prerequisites as part of individual coursework completed through post-secondary studies may qualify to write the CMA National Entrance Exam. Students are required to provide transcripts showing successful completion of all courses covering the 16 syllabus topic areas, as outlined by the Advanced Standing Guide. Exemption will be granted for the 16 syllabus topics if 60% (or a grade of C) or higher has been achieved in the topic areas. First-time writers qualifying for the exam through the course-by-course pathway are required to enroll in available Entrance Exam Prep Courses (Review Series and Simulation Series) upon registration for the entrance exam. To qualify for the exam through individual coursework, please arrange to have your official college or university transcripts, or ICES report sent to the CMA British Columbia student advisor. A Transcript Review Form is also required to be submitted to our office. As it can take up to 2-3 weeks to receive your transcript review, please ensure that you submit your transcripts and Transcript Review Form at least three weeks before the exam registration deadline.
