Foreign Candidates Examination Information and Educational Evaluation Process
To sit for the CPA examination as an Oklahoma candidate, you must be a resident of this state immediately prior to filing your application as required by Section 15.8.A of the Oklahoma Accountancy Act. Examples of such substantiation could include documentation as to place of residence, copies of Oklahoma tax returns, college or university enrollment, employment, etc.
If you satisfy the Oklahoma residence requirement and you were educated at a university located outside the United States, it will be necessary to have your education evaluated to determine whether it is equivalent to the education which the State of Oklahoma requires to qualify for the examination. Below is a list of agencies recognized by the Oklahoma Accountancy Board to evaluate the education of applicants. The evaluation process can require several months to complete. The applicant must pay the fee for the evaluation in addition to the Oklahoma examination application fee.
Contact the evaluation service directly to request detailed information about their required forms, procedures and costs of the evaluation. Prices of evaluations vary among the services. After the evaluation service has reviewed your official transcripts the service must issue a report containing a detailed assessment of how your education meets the requirements set forth in Section 15.8.C of the Oklahoma Accountancy Act.
The original report from the evaluation service must then be filed with the application to sit for the CPA examination which you file with the Oklahoma Accountancy Board along with the transcript(s), which were evaluated. Photocopies of evaluation reports are not accepted.
