You do not have to be licensed in a state to work there, unless you want to do auditing. If you want to work in NY, just make sure you meet their requirements. You might as well take your test there too unless there's some reason you need it in the state you're going to school in. Where you take your testing doesn't matter, it will still apply in any state so long as you meet all of their other requirements for licensing.

^ Why is CPA so state-based?

taxguy

^^^ Although the CPA exam is a uniform exam, the CPA license is state based. Thus, each state has their own requirements for qualifying to sit for the CPA exam. However, it isn't as draconian as it may sound. Most of the states adopt the standards set by the American Society of CPAs with a few modifications. It is these few modifications that drive folks crazy.

not that i care, or am going to change. how could you possibly classify my post as EXTREMELY RACIST?

well sp?

how was it pretty bad? skittles.

some of you people dont get it. you dont have to go to UCB, texas, etc to get a job with the big 4. i know people that had sub 3.0 gpas and work for the big 4. all of the big four recruit at my school, virginia tech heavily. it may be because there are a ton of public accounting jobs in the dc area, maybe bc the big 4 audits the federal govt. i know this because i worked along side kpmg and PWC auditors, auditing the largest branch of the fed govt (you figure out which one). my point is that a sdsu grad can have just as a successful career as whatever school you ****s go to.

Geez, grow up. I was just kidding and had no intention of being offensive. I hope you remain mediocre though.

sdmatt

mediocre as in interning at a big 4 firm? that led me to a meeting at the WHITE HOUSE? yes the big four did this. acutally i give credit to my school, my gpa is under 3.5.

i can work full time for the company that i interned with this past summer or work for OMB. you prob dont even know what that is, although its not mediocre. kid
