ACCA is a degree or not?? - Masaood2 - 02-03-2009
ACCA is a degree ? Means is it legal to do ACCA while doing other degree ? As I am M.A Economics and now I got admission in M.phil in Economics. So am I eligible to apply for ACCA ? And is that legal ?

i dont know when is it "illegal"to do a qualification. ofcourse u can register with ACCA u will also get exemptions from some papers.
note ACCA is not a degree. u have an option to gain a degree while studying the ACCA qualification.

Generally, it has always been a good practice to read the query properly before typing answer. Anyway, Yes Masood, you can do ACCA while pursuing some other degree from any university. The absurd rule for which you were talking is only applicable to those who are pursuing two or more degrees from same or different universities of Pakistan. For example a person cannot do BBA from KU while pursuing B.Com. But fortunately, this rule is not applicable outside Pakistani territory.
