If you are registered in your final prerequisite exam before the start of Core 1 you can apply for admission to CPA PEP. After your admission is approved you can register in Core 1 on a conditional basis. If you are unsuccessful in your final exam, you will be withdrawn from Core 1 and the Core 1 module fee will be refunded.

After registration closes, you may still register for a module; however, as you missed the deadline, you will need to add yourself to the Wait List. We review the list every week and close it one week before the module starts.  

To register for the Wait List: 

• Log into My CPA portal 
• Select Module Registration  
• Select the session 
• Click on Wait List for the module. 

To join the wait list, you will need to pay a non-refundable fee in addition to the module fee. We cannot guarantee your choice of workshop or exam locations.  

You will receive an email within 2 to 3 business days confirming availability in the module and indicating which locations you have been approved to attend for the workshop and exam. You will have two business days from when you receive that email to log into My CPA Portal and register for the module. 

Candidates must be accepted into CPA PEP at least 30 days before the module start date to be eligible for the wait list.  

Waitlist fees reflect the additional administration required after the module registration period closes. Candidates must be accepted into CPA PEP at least 30 days before the module start date to be eligible for the waitlist.  

Applications should be submitted at least one week before the registration period closes.  

The CPA PEP initial registration fee is a one-time administration fee charged to all candidates when they apply for admission to CPA PEP and is separate from the CPA preparatory course or CPA PEP annual dues. Applicants who have not completed the CPA preparatory courses will also be charged CPA PEP dues at the time of admission. For CPA preparatory course graduates, dues are assessed and charged within two weeks after your Core 1 orientation workshop.

The difference between CPA preparatory courses and CPA PEP dues is prorated when candidates enter CPA PEP.  

Unfortunately, this is not possible. If your employer has agreed to cover your CPA PEP fees, please see Q1 for how to obtain a copy of your receipts.

Please ensure that you choose the PREP Graduate registration category on your CPA PEP admission application to ensure the correct fees are applied. If you are being charged annual candidate dues, you have chosen the wrong registration category.  

The CPA PEP admission application will be reviewed for good character and program eligibility before your application can be approved. This could take up to five business days to complete.

Your CPA PEP admission application must be reviewed and approved by PEP Admissions which could take up to five business days.
