yconic is the place where you can give and get the help you need for your life as a student. To help keep our community an enjoyable, helpful and safe place for all members, please adhere to the following guidelines.
1. Be nice to people. It's okay to provide constructive criticism, but there is no need to insult other members. For example, "X major is over-saturated right now. You might have trouble finding a job" is fine. "Your major is dumb. Have fun working in fast food," is not helpful nor appropriate.
2. Ask actual questions. If you're looking for help with something, titling a thread "HELP, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO" isn't going to appeal to the members that may be best suited to help you. Be specific and title your post with relevant information.
3. Don't abuse the anonymous feature by pretending to be multiple people. Surprise, surprise, we know who posts what :)
4. Please only tag relevant interests when you create a new thread. Adding unrelated interests is unlikely to get you the help you're looking for and can frustrate other members.
5. Avoid spamming. This includes replying to your own thread for the sole purpose of moving it up the discussion feed.
6. Don't expose other people's personal information. If someone is posting anonymously, please respect their privacy.
7. If you see something you don't like, click the 'Report' button in the post menu and a moderator will review it. Please avoid commenting on inappropriate posts as this only encourages them.
8. Did a post help you? Click the "Was this post helpful?" button to help us recognize our most helpful members and so that other people will know the response was...you guessed it, helpful!
If you do not respect our guidelines, you may be temporarily or permanently banned from the yconic community.

I'm going into UTSC for NON co-op management, and was wondering what kind of standing I have with regards to others in qualifying to be a future CA/CPA/(one other?) when compared with other University programs.
I've read that Waterloo's AFM and York's Schulich business programs are seen as one of the best with regards to this. Also, my program is not one of the Accredited Programs found on the CA website, which is kind of making me a bit worried.
I'm pretty sure for law school they don't care what school/program you're in -- You just need a high gpa and lsat (lsat 160+)
For CA, depends on what type of firm you want but if you just want a CA, it doesn't really matter what school you go to as long as you get requirements + work experience with any accounting firm
UTSC is not fully-accredited. However, it has all of the 51 credit-hours so you can still fulfill your CA requirements. You just do not receive some of the benefits of being in a fully-accredited programs (all of which could be considered the "top" programs I guess).
You would become a CA, not a CPA. CPA is American. You can actually become a CPA as well if you are already a CPA, there is a process through CICA and whatever the American Institute is and you write a reciprocation exam.
All you have to do is keep your marks up and try to gain relevant work experience in the summers. Sales experience is good or whatever you can find (trying to get into a CA firm would be best). Finish your CA hours with a CATO firm and you are good.
UTSC compared to other programs isn't that much different, it's better than some and not as good as other. Co-op can be a big plus, and attending a reputable program such as Schulich and Waterloo can help with recruitment, but essentially you will be on the same page as everyone. UTSC is certainly not a bad school.

One could become a CPA if that was the goal. However, all of the examinations would be done trough the American office. :)
@g93 wrote ^ The Canadian schools likely aren't accredited. I think the only way would be to go to school in the US or to get your CA first.
For all intents and purposes, he/she is going to become a CA.
If we refer to the NY Office of Professionals, we can see that the board reviews all applications from all institutions around the world and doesn't look at the institution itself, but rather at the course work completed in the undergraduate program. ;)
