      You will need to contact your institute in regards the scholarship option or get employed by an ACCA approved employer of Gold or Platinum status who will support you in your studies.

      Take Care.

    Dear Sir,
    I registered ACCA (as MSER) 2years ago and passed F1 paper, afterwards couldn’t continue due to financial constraint, employed 2 years at UAE returned home to continue the same, unfortunately i was transferred as CAT student as per the law of ACCA.
    My question is: can i sit for TT5 & TT6 (CBE) exams before October 2011 in order to sit for my next level of exams?
    Please advice regarding FIA transitional rules and exams eligibility in my case.
    Rgds
