Program details

Overview

This Certificate in Accountancy, offered through Concordia's John Molson School of Business, is designed for students who already hold a bachelor's degree in a field other than Accountancy and want to complete coursework that can qualify them for entry to the Graduate Diploma in Chartered Professional Accountancy program. The one-year, 30-credit certificate covers the accounting coursework required for that professional pathway, serving as a stepping stone toward the CPA designation at the graduate level. Classes are held on the Sir George Williams campus in Montreal, with entry in the Fall or Winter term. The program is restricted to Canadian citizens, landed immigrants and permanent residents of Canada who have completed a bachelor's degree in a subject other than Accountancy, and applicants apply through the standard undergraduate admissions process.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: This certificate is open only to applicants who hold a completed Bachelor's degree in a subject other than Accountancy, and admission is restricted to Canadian citizens, landed immigrants and permanent residents of Canada. Concordia's institution-wide English proficiency minimum applies unless exempt: IELTS Academic 6.0 with no band below 5.5, TOEFL iBT 70, or Duolingo 105. Fall applications are due March 1 and Winter applications November 1; late applications are considered if space remains.
