Ans: Hello Aniruddha,
To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am happy to hear that your nephew has cleared his CA in 2021 and now wishes to pursue MS in Accounting and CPA in the USA. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that there are numerous benefits associated with pursuing an MS in Accounting in the USA on completion of CA. Doing so, deepens one’s comprehension of accounting concepts, broadens expertise in specialized fields of study, as well as supplements the CA qualification. Not just that, knowledge and reputation is enhanced, particularly in the US accounting business, through pursuing CPA (Certified Public Accountant) certification alongside.
I would recommend that your nephew takes into account prominent universities offering MS in Accounting,viz., University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, University of Southern California, or University of Texas at Austin. The CPA prerequisites for each state is unique, nevertheless, states viz., California, New York, and Texas frequently have numerous options and thriving accounting businesses.
Remember that based on the location, university opted for, and the duration of the course, the costs can differ greatly, but could span from $30,000 to $70,000 or higher annually. Also bear in mind that based on variables such as the geography, work experience, and work role, salaries for CPAs in the USA can range from $50,000 to $100,000+ per year after graduation.
Individual choices, professional goals, as well as financial constraints play a key role in selecting a state and university for their CPA education. To make an educated choice, I would suggest that your nephew conducts an all-round study as well gets in touch with academic counselors or industry experts for advice.
