What is the education requirement for CPA certification?
The education requirement is 150-hours of education with a baccalaureate or higher degree from an accredited college or university. This must include at least 36 semester hours of accounting, including at least 30 hours of upper level coursework (R4-1-343(A)(5)), plus 30 semester hours of related courses (A.R.S.32-701(15)). PLEASE NOTE the educational requirements to take the Uniform CPA Exam in Arizona are different than the requirements to be certified (Education Requirement for Exam).
