Candidates will need to request an official transcript from the university, to be emailed from the university directly to the CAS at mailto:exam-waivers@casact.org.
An invoice ($75 per VEE Credit requested) will be emailed to the candidate within 5 business days. The application verification process will begin once all application materials and payment have been received.
Once the application, fee, and transcript are received, candidates will be notified of the evaluation verification results within 5-15 business days. The notification will specify whether the credits are accepted or denied for waiver purposes.
Approved Courses and Educational Experiences
Only those courses and educational experiences listed in the SOA’s VEE Directory of Approved Courses or Alternate Options are eligible for VEE credit. To qualify for credit, a course must be completed with a grade of B– or better, or its accepted equivalent as specified in the VEE Directory. Applications for partial credit are not allowed (for example, a candidate cannot submit a standalone approved accounting course; it must be paired with an approved finance course).
Courses or options from different educational providers can be combined to fulfill a VEE topic requirement. An approved accounting course from one institution can be paired with an approved finance course from a different institution or provider.
If a course is not listed in the VEE Directory, individuals should contact the SOA at vee@soa.org for guidance on how to proceed with obtaining course approval.
