Education, refresher, and conditional status
The consolidated PRC requirements identify BS Accountancy under the Accountancy qualification. PRC's current requirements page says that after two failures, an examinee must submit a refresher-course transcript from a school accredited by the Board of Accountancy; it also says the transcript is valid for two years from issue. A conditional or removal examination is listed as being taken within two years from the date of examination.

Before submitting
- Compare the documents in your LERIS transaction with PRC's current Accountancy list.
- Check whether your application is complete before the sitting's published deadline.
- For a prior-failure, conditional, foreign-document, or other special case, ask PRC or the Board of Accountancy about the current applicable requirement rather than relying on an older checklist.
- Keep the Notice of Admission after PRC issues it; it is also used in the examination-day instructions.
