  • This will vary by individual—studying for the CPA is a rigorous, time-consuming process. However, all states require a bachelor’s degree and at least 120 credit hours to apply and sit for the exam. It’s important that you do your best with your accounting coursework while on campus. Immediately after graduating with a bachelor’s degree, or during your fifth year of a masters program, is an ideal time to start studying for the exam. If you pass the exam within 12 months of starting at CohnReznick, you can be eligible for our $10,000 CPA bonus.
