CPA Exam

Kentucky accountancy law requires completion of 150 semester hours before being licensed as a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Students can fulfill the 150-hour requirement by taking additional undergraduate or graduate hours beyond the bachelor's degree. Any course used to fulfill a BBA/core requirement may not also be used to fulfill a BBA/accounting option requirement. In such cases, a course or courses from the list of approved electives must be substituted for the course(s) used to fulfill the BBA/Core requirement.
