Many state boards require that your credentials be evaluated by a service to
determine if your education meets their requirements. If your objective is to obtain the CPA designation and you are not
interested in practicing in a particular state, you should consider the
following when determining where to sit for the CPA Exam:
- Verify that there is no residency requirement.
- Look for a state that has not enacted the 150-hour requirement.
- Look for a state that offers a CPA certificate separate from its license
to practice.
- Look for a state where CPE requirements apply only to the license to
practice.
For State Board website links, find your chosen state on our
CPA Requirements and
Registration Instructions by State page. Be sure to find out exactly what type of
evaluation report your state requires. Then, contact the credential evaluation
organization of your choice through the link below to verify that their services are
accepted in the state in which you intend to apply.
