CMA + CPA Roadmap with the Simandhar Bridge Course
Mon Oct 27 2025
Many commerce students dream of earning both CMA (USA) and CPA (USA) — but get stuck thinking it’s impossible because of education requirements.
Here’s how Simandhar Education helps you make it happen through a simple, structured roadmap.
The Challenge
Most Indian students complete a 3-year B.Com degree. That’s perfect for CMA (USA) eligibility — but CPA (USA) requires 16 years of education. Without an additional qualification, students fall short by one year.
The Simandhar Solution
Step 1 – Complete B.Com (3 years)
Finish your graduation in Regular, Online, or Distance mode.
You’re eligible for CMA (USA) as a student.
Step 2 – Enroll in Simandhar’s M.Com Bridge Course (2 years)
This two-year program extends your total education to 16 years, meeting CPA eligibility requirements while preserving CMA student status.
Step 3 – Pursue CMA + CPA in Parallel
After enrolling, continue CMA with student discounts and register for CPA. Simandhar mentors guide you in exam strategy, study plans, and time management.
Step 4 – Career Launch
Once you complete M.Com + CMA + CPA, you’ll be ready for roles in Big 4 firms, US MNCs, and multinational finance teams with a strong dual qualification that sets you apart.
Real Example
