The Certificate in Accounting (Post-Baccalaureate) program is not specifically designed to fulfill Certified Public Accountant (CPA) licensure requirements in an individual state, however, the program can be used to partially fulfill licensure requirements. Each state has different requirements for licensure. Post University does not guarantee licensure, and there are licensure requirements outside of education. It is ultimately the responsibility of individual students to be in charge of their own licensure process and to make sure that all requirements are met in obtaining licensure. Post University does not speak on behalf of any licensing board or body. The following table shows whether Post University, with completion of the appropriate curriculum, does or does not fulfill the educational requirements for a specific license: Certified Public Accountant Disclosure by State Visit the University Catalog >> for Curriculum, Course Descriptions, and Program Outcomes.
