Further to my an email of Thursday, please be advised
that the CFA Program is postgraduate. The
readings assigned in the study program and the
questions on the CFA
examinations are geared for individuals who are
prepared to deal with
"masters" level course work. No specific prerequisite
courses of study
are
prescribed for enrolling in the CFA Program, but
applicants should be
aware
that assigned readings in many topic areas are beyond
a basic,
introductory
level.
To register in the CFA Program, an applicant must
* Have a US bachelor's degree or comparable non-US
degree. The degree
requirement is self-reporting. An applicant must
receive a bachelor's
degree no later than 31 December of the current
examination year to
qualify
for entrance into the CFA Program.
If an applicant does not have a degree, qualified
professional work
experience totaling at least four years may be
acceptable. Eligible
professional experience for entrance to the program
instead of a degree
does
not have to be investment related; summer, part-time
and internship
positions do not qualify. Employment dates and (month
and year) and a
detailed description of for all current and previous
positions must be
included with the Registration & Enrollment Form. An
applicant may
also
apply for entrance to the program with a combination
of
college/university
and professional work experience that total at least
four years. (The
four-year total must be accrued by the application
date.) Details must
be
included with the Registration & Enrollment Form.
If a student does not meet the degree requirement by
31 December of the
examination year, his or her candidacy will be
cancelled, examination
results will be voided, no refund of submitted
registration and
enrollment
fees will be issued, and he or she will need to
register again and pay
all
applicable fees to re-enter the program.
* Complete, sign and return the Registration &
Enrollment Form,
including the Professional Conduct Inquiry and
Candidate Responsibility
Statement located on the back of the form.
* Pay the required fees.
AIMR will not review your credentials unless you
submit a registration
and
enrollment form with full payment. If an applicant
does not meet the
entrance requirements, the applicant will receive a
reimbursement of
all
current examination fees less a US$100 processing fee.
Please read through it and let me know your comments.
