ACCA has made the decision not to increase its exam fees for the September 2020 session, unveiled in February.
If any student has already booked a September exam at the previously state higher price, they will now receive a credit to their account with the difference.
ACCA is also reminding students that those committed to continuing their studies completing the Ethics and Professional Skills Module might be a good use of time.
PQ magazine had been talking to ACCA about our concerns over the price hikes.
ACCA run different price bands (A, B and C). However, the standard exam fee for Applied Skills in the UK, for instance, was due to go up from £120 to £130. For the SBL the standard fee would have broken the £200 barrier for the first time – a rise from £199 to £222. And, the cost of sitting the Strategic Professional (options) was due to go up from £155 to £173 (again at the standard entry rate).
So, what are the September 2020 rates now for UK (price band A) sitters:
Applied Skills
Early entry £114
Standard entry £120
Late entry £307
Ethics & Professional Skills Module
£70
Strategic Professional (essential
