ACCA students who have passed Part 1 of the ACCA qualification and are in the process of completing Part 2 or 3 are eligible to sit for the Oxford Brookes BSc Honours degree in Applied Accounting. Students may submit their Project whilst completing Part 2 or Part 3 of their ACCA examinations, or indeed as an ACCA member. This degree is highly regarded and based on practical, professional, employer-driven accounting requirements.
Eligible
Students
To be eligible for entry, students must have sat
and passed a minimum of Papers 2.4, 2.5, and
2.6. If you have been awarded exemptions from
Papers 2.4, 2.5, or 2.6 or if you have
exemptions from any papers based on
qualifications gained more than ten years ago,
you will not be eligible to join the degree
scheme unless you give up the exemptions and sit
the relevant papers. Students must also
demonstrate proficiency in English. There are a
number of ways this can be achieved:
-
By possessing a qualification which satisfies ACCA's English language requirements - e.g. GCSE English, or ELTS grade 6, IELTS grade 6.5 or TOEFL score of 500 paper-based or 173 computer-based.
-
By completing your previous studies in a country where the medium of educational instruction is English.
-
By passing ACCA's paper 1.3 (either internal or external) or the Accountant in Business.
Please see the ACCA website for full details of entry requirements at: www.accaglobal.com.
What is
required for the degree
Students are required to complete two pieces of
work (in addition to passing Parts 1 and 2 of
the ACCA qualification) in order to demonstrate
the ability to research, analyse and use key
skills:
Research and Analysis Project - a 5,000 word report
Key Skills Statement - a 1,500 word statement
Normally the Research and Analysis Project should take about two months of full-time study to complete. It is therefore ideally suited to being undertaken after your ACCA Part 2 or Part 3 exams, or whilst waiting for your ACCA results.
