How to join ACCA as a mature student - sbmamoon - 06-05-2006
hi friends
I am a student OF CAT. I want to know can I join ACCA as a mature student since i will over 21 years in august.
So what is the process for joining ACCA as a mature student to drop CAT?

my friend ,
u hav to do nothing , as u become 21 acca itself tranfer u in ACCA from CAT.
same case is happen with my one of my fello. he is doing cat and given all 5 papers in one attempt(dec) but unfortunately he failed in one of them(paper 5) so he can't calim any exemption. then he started his preparation of P5 and after few days he comes to know that he can't appeared in next june session bcoz he is tranferred to level 1( as he becomes of 21 in jan.or feb.)
Anyhow u must consult to your local ACCA office they will gudie u better

my advice is do not contact your local ACCA office if you live in karachi. it is almost certain that they will not guide you properly instead contact ACCA directly at students@accaglobal.com

i have also heard that karachi acca office guides wrongly.
it will be better to give 3 papers as a mature student rather than completing cat.
