Successful graduates from our B Comm (Accounting), Master of Accounting and general B.Comm graduates who have opted for the Accounting stream in their final year receive varying degrees of exemptions from the examinations of these professional bodies. These exemptions are regularly renegotiated with the professional bodies.
