US CMA, eligible to challenge CPA PEP exams?

You need the 51 credit hour/legacy CA courses to challenge the exams. Did you complete your undergrad education in the US? It appears that your transcript was already assessed. While you got all the courses required for PEP entry, the assessment team determined that you did not have all equivalent courses to challenge exams.

No one can really vouch for you especially online unless they work in the transcript assessment team. This is merely an assumption from what I am seeing.

Hi,
No, I have an European Msc, equivalent to a Canadian Master's according to WES assessment. Looking at the the content of the 51 hours, going by CPA Ontario's web site, the only credit I might be missing is tax, is there a way to supplement that after graduating?
Thanks

why do u want to pursue Canadian CPA? are you particularly interested in auditing?

I would've thought you would be more into industry as CMA,in which case experience is what really matters not Canadian CPA, which is I think is less versatile than the American designation; just curious

Nope, only reason is that the Can CPA seems to be the only recognizable certification (besides CFA, but that's finance) in TO. I would be the happiest person if someone could prove me wrong!

I know a few US CMA and their designations aren't really reconcile here.

I've never had anyone ask me what it is, but never have gotten an interview explicitly because of the CMA either.
My goal is to work as an fp&a analyst doing sql and excel all day, I'm not really interested in accounting but i signed up (CPA) because at the time it seemed like a necessity for get a job in TO.

I'm pretty sure its not ur US CMA thats preventing you from getting the interview;
I was thinking companies wouldn't even able to tell CMA canada from CMA US anyways
I know plenty of US CPAs working in Canada, I was thinking CMA (US) would be even better than CMA (CDN) just cuz there are more US affiliated companies

One can tell a Canadian CMA from an US CMA. The Canadian CMA has title of CPA, CMA. Most Canadian companies don't really value foreign des/ education.
