Changes to Canadian University Accreditation Program

The CAS recognizes the exam waivers granted by the Canadian Institute of Actuaries (CIA) University Accreditation Program (UAP).

The CIA has recently revised the program to allow credit for Exam 1. Starting with courses given in summer of 2019, the CIA will recognize courses completed with a minimum grade requirement at many of the 11 accredited universities.

The CAS will grant UAP credit for Exam 1 and will continue to grant UAP credit for Exam 2 and 3F. In addition, the CAS gives credit for prior Exam 4 if the course work was completed by 12/31/2018.
