Undergraduate degree: A minimum 2.2 honours (Level 8) degree in Accounting & Finance or a closely related field is required. Equivalent professional qualifications (e.g., ACCA/CPA) may also be accepted.

Higher GPAs (e.g., ≥ 60–65%) strengthen the application.Subject prerequisites: Bachelor's in Accounting, Finance, or related disciplines with modules like financial accounting, auditing, corporate governance, management accounting etc. Non‑accounting holders should have at least 5 years’ experience in finance roles.
