B.Com (ACCA) students often receive exemptions from certain ACCA exams, primarily from the Applied Knowledge and some Applied Skills papers. The exact number of exemptions depends on the university and its accreditation with ACCA. Typically, students can be exempted from up to 9 exams, covering subjects like Business & Technology (BT), Management Accounting (MA), Financial Accounting (FA), Taxation (TX), and Financial Reporting (FR). However, students must verify their eligibility through ACCA's exemption calculator on the official website.
To claim exemptions, students must submit their academic transcripts and pay exemption fees. While exemptions save time and effort, some students prefer to take exempted exams to strengthen their foundational knowledge. It’s crucial to consider career goals and future learning requirements before opting for exemptions. Additionally, exemptions do not apply to the Strategic Professional level exams, meaning all students must complete the final four exams to qualify as ACCA members.
