Hi, I'm Swaroop from India; I'm presently pursuing Chartered Accountancy (CA) course (A 5-year professional course, established by an act of Parliament under the Chartered Accountants Act, 1949 in India), undergoing three year articleship training in KPMG - India. I'm currently in the Audit department (statutory/tax and group audits). I'm interested in pursuing research in finance and economics from prestigious institutions.
I started pursuing Chartered Accountancy immediately after concluding my high school. Thus, I did not attend any college for graduation. However, I have graduated through Distance Education (NOT a regular college degree) from Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), for B.com (Bachelor of Commerce, which is a 3 year program.
I will be completing the CA course by March 2015 and I'm planning to make applications for Graduate schools around that time.
Given the background, following are the Queries:
1. Will I be eligible for admission into the premier universities with the above credentials? Importantly a 3-year Under Graduation through Distance Education.
2. Chartered Accountancy is recognized for pursuing PhD in various Indian universities, does that have a similar impact on foreign universities too?
3. Considering my background, what are the best programs available and what are the various schools that offer the required courses?
4. Does my professional experience (3 articleship at KPMG) affect my admission in any way?
Thank you in advance for responding to my queries.
