    hey,

    at the moment i'm a 22 year old fund accountant and have been for a year and a half.

    i heard just now dec 31st was the dead line:eek:. do they accept late entries or am i fooked!

    also any advice how i go about it? I would just pay online now if it would ensure sitting exams in June and then just get the money back off my employer-they will pay for me to do the exams.

    any advice on late entry?

    Err.. where did u hear about closing entry date on Dec 31st? Check out the website http://www.accaglobal.com and there are extensive guidance on how to enroll as ACCA students and registering for the exams.

    There are processes that you may have to go through before taking any exams including assessing your existing academic qualifications and exemption on certain ACCA papers.

    Have a read on the website. And good luck!

    As far as I'm aware, in order to sit the June exams, you need to be registered by mid December. I may be wrong, but the websire should help you confirm that.

    Also, ACCA have an Irish office and I found them very helpful in getting myself registered.

    One thing I will tell you to get the ball rolling on is an official transcript of any college degree you may have completed, as the University/IT admin offices can be painfully slow generating these (they also charge a fee for printing you out a page...!!)

    I rang them yesterday ans the lady the last to register so you can do exams in June is Dec 31st but you can send a cover letter with your application explaining why you are late. It may take up to 6 weeks to get the info back so if you sign up for a course and then find out that you cant sit an exam in June it wouldnt be ideal.

    Anyway Can you do the F1, F2, F3 computer based at anytime??
