The state Boards of Accountancy are regulatory agencies that are responsible for administering the uniform CPA examination, licensing of certified public accountants (CPAs) and CPA firms, regulating the public accounting practice, continuing professional education, and peer review.
The National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) takes on the role of a central clearinghouse where all jurisdictions submit information on eligible candidates and from which all jurisdictions receive advisory scores and other examination data.
For the Uniform CPA Examination, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) determines the content of the examination, prepares the examination questions, determines the method of scoring, prepares advisory scores and conducts statistical analyses of examination results.

The Uniform CPA Examination is administered in Prometric test centers in the U.S. and designated international locations, whether or not the test center is located within the borders of the jurisdiction where you are seeking your initial license.
Citizens and long-term residents of the countries in which the examination is administered may sit for the examination in international locations. Effective October 2014, Indian citizens can take the exam in UAE. However, candidates taking the exam in international locations have to pay additional fee of approx. $1,300 in addition to regular examination fee of $955.
NASBA will now administer the U.S. CPA Exam in India at eight Prometric test centers (Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Calcutta, Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai, New Delhi and Trivandrum).
Indian candidates may now schedule to take any CPA exam section throughout the year (except on a Sunday & Public Holidays).
Candidates testing at any international testing center must pay an examination administration fee before scheduling with Prometric. To do so, please log into your NASBA CPA Candidate Account portal and select "International Administration." The international administration process for the India region is now available.
A candidate needs a score of 75 marks to pass each section of the CPA exam.
After the Examination, candidate responses are forwarded to the AICPA for scoring. When advisory scores become available, the AICPA sends them to NASBA which in turn forwards it to Boards of Accountancy for approval and subsequent release to candidates.
Once you pass a section(s) of the examination, you are allowed a maximum of 18 months to pass all remaining sections in order to retain credit on the passed section(s). If you do not pass all four sections within that 18-month period, you will lose credit for the first section of the exam you passed. A new 18-month period will commence with a start date of the second section that was passed.
Our dedicated support staff is with you all the way right from registration with us until you successfully pass the exam and get certified. Our professors monitor your studies throughout and provide valuable suggestions to take corrective actions to make your studies easier and smooth.
