Notes
- AFM 462, AFM 482, and AFM 491 may be substituted with an acceptable 300-/400-level AFM elective, with the understanding that any such substitution would forfeit Master of Accounting (MAcc) admission eligibility and will impact the path to a Chartered Professional Accountancy (CPA) designation pursued through CPA Ontario.
- Students may not repeat an AFM course in which they have obtained a grade of 60% or higher. AFM courses completed with a grade in the range 50-59% may be repeated, but only once, and then only with approval from the School of Accounting and Finance.
- In order to meet the requirements of both the Faculty of Mathematics and the School of Accounting and Finance, the Mathematics/CPA academic plan requires the successful completion of 41 courses.
Tuition
This is a high-fee academic plan. As such, tuition higher than the normal University of Waterloo tuition is required.
