A Guide to Accounting Degrees Abroad
Why Earn Your Degree Abroad
Becoming a globetrotting CPA is easier than you think. In fact, it comes highly recommended, too. As globalization leads to more and more countries accepting the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), demand for financial professionals with global business experience is skyrocketing. Accepting an international assignment vis-à-vis an accounting degree abroad program is your ticket to career advancement.
Many high-brow clients are increasingly demanding professionals with global experience too, so public accounting firms and multinational businesses are responding. Entry-level candidates with study abroad experience under their belt are being recognized as valuable additions to teams and high-priority recruits; what more applicants who earned a full degree abroad in accounting?
Accounting majors learn how to gather, record, analyze, interpret, and communicate information about financial performance and risks. Where better to apply those forecasting skills than on the world stage?
Locations
While a great number of accounting degrees can be earned all over the world, a good amount of accounting degree programs are located in England, and of that number, a good majority are located in London. One important factor to keep in mind when deciding where to earn your accounting degree abroad is what your price range is, and what specialty you want to get your degree in. London offers almost everything anyone could want academically, however, it’s the most expensive place to live in the world.
From London to Liverpool, England is one of the most, if not THE most popular places to study abroad, and for good reason. British academic institutions are without rival, there is no need to learn a second language if you’re a native English speaker, and the English people themselves are charming and hilarious. If you chose to earn a degree in London you’ll find the most elite universities and accounting degree programs, which are harder to get into, are more expensive, and require more work, but are the most prestigious. While in other cities, such as York or Brighton, you’ll have a bit of an easier time, you won’t necessarily get the branded recognition you’d get from a university in London.
In Asia, there are several places to choose from for your accounting degree, including Thailand and Malaysia. These accounting degree programs are for the more adventurous, or those looking to live and learn in a non-traditional location. Universities in Asia tend to be more focused on preparing you for a career rather than pure academic study. For example, Asia Pacific University in Kuala Lumpur emphasizes individual development and creativity. Along with having respected institutions, Asia has some amazing outdoors activities considering jungles and white sand beaches abound.
If you don’t mind speaking Spanish daily, then check out accounting degree programs available in South America. In Peru, you can earn your accounting degree in an amazing tropical city with a rich history of indigenous and colonial background. Meanwhile in Argentina, you can trek through Patagonia while studying the turbulent financial history of one of South America’s most prominent countries.
Accounting Degree Programs
You might think that earning your accounting degree abroad would limit you to only a certain number of universities, but think again! There are quite a few universities to choose from, and of those, many offer different degree program lengths which each present their own advantages. Popular international universities with accounting degree programs include the University of Stirling in Europe, the American University of Rome, and Macquarie University in Australia.
Most accounting degree programs offer the gamut when it comes to course options and specializations. Popular classes include information systems, auditing, computer systems, cost accounting, economics, finance, government accounting, and even management and marketing.
Lucky for you, fluency in a foreign language is not required for all accounting degrees abroad. Students who are simply fluent in numbers, tax filings, and asset-liability balance sheets, or who identify as analytical and attentive to detail, often succeed in accounting degree programs abroad.
Benefits & Challenges
The benefits of earning your accounting degree abroad include finishing your degree in less than four years; how’s THAT for a balanced worksheet? Not only are you saving time, but you’re saving money, too. For graduate students already in the workforce, this is an absolute perk! We didn’t even mention the amazing exotic foods you’ll be able to chow down on when cramming for tests or the lasting benefit of professional networking for future international employment opportunities yet!
However, life abroad as an accounting student isn’t all peaches and cream (and tax-evasion-free). Learning entirely new tax systems can be overwhelming at first, especially if you are unsure if you’d even like to live in your degree destination in the future. Have you ever tackled a financial audit in a foreign currency or language? It may not be easy, but it is a worthwhile experience nonetheless.
You’re more than a bean counter! Before you jump headfirst into a life of balancing books and suits and ties and conservative skirts, have a little adventure. Get your accounting degree abroad and jump start an international career in finance!

Studying my bachelor's in Beijing was the best decision
June 16, 2026by: Nina Koskinen - FinlandProgram: Bachelor's & Master's Degrees in China | Apply with GAC
I wasn't sure about leaving Finland for a full degree in China, but GAC made the application process smooth. They helped me choose the right university, prepared my documents, and guided me through the visa process. Now I'm studying International Business at a top university in Beijing. Tuition is affordable, the campus is modern, and my classmates are from all over the world. The support didn't stop after enrollment – GAC checked in to make sure I settled in well. If you're considering a degree in China, go through GAC. They make it easy.

Two best years of my life!

I would describe moving to study in Italy, Venice as one of the best decisions of my life. I have been able to meet people from all around the world and to develop myself academically in the best way possible. For someone who is looking for an experience where you will feel like you truly belong in a student community, I would defenitely reccomend Ca' Foscari University.

Come to Rome to have te best time in your life!
December 06, 2023by: Nicole Carnabuci - ItalyMy time in Rome was not just a visit; it was an immersion into a living testament of human achievement and endurance. The city's timeless allure left me enriched, and I carry the echoes of its beauty, history, and vibrancy with me. Spread the word: Rome is not just a destination; it's an odyssey of the senses, an experience that transcends travel and becomes a cherished chapter in the book of life.
I love Rome
April 24, 2023by: Rachel Poston - United StatesI have had an amazing time in Rome and enjoyed all the culture and food. John Cabot has given me the chance to make connections from all over the world and still feel like I'm at home. I have loved my marketing classes where I compare Italian and american ads.
The American life in Rome

Loved it
April 24, 2023by: Juan Gamboa - ColombiaThe opportunities, the experience and memories made at this university is something not many have the privilege to have in their lives. Beginning with the city, the culture, people and food it makes you feel at home. Not only the safe atmosphere, the professors and students develop a sense of family that I do not think I can find anywhere else.

Best experience you can have in university!
April 20, 2023by: Laela Allen - United StatesI love this school and I am very thankful that I have the opportunity to be here. It is in a cool location and the professors are also great. I also think that Trastevere is the best place to be in Rome because there is so much to see and do.
The best college choice
April 20, 2023by: Erin Doyle - United StatesJCU has been an an amazing experience for me so far! I love going to school here and am proud to be a member of the community. I came to JCU right out of high school and moving to a new country at 18 can be intimidating, but the school does a great job of helping new students.

A journey to comfort and warmth
February 07, 2023by: Emmanuel Junior Nweke - NigeriaLike the rising of the sun, slowly brings warmth to a cold day, that's how I can describe my experience at AUB. The people of Lebanon sometimes say they can be rude, but what I found out is the issue of trust, the people are rich in hospitality and once they trust you, they make you feel at home, and give you comfort and warmth. At the end, everyone would miss their time at AUB.
I loved it!
December 07, 2022by: Giorgia Cinaglia - ItalyI loved it here in Rome, I'm a sophomore and I fell in love with JCU! I would definitely do it again. The professors were amazing and the people were so welcoming. I didn't have problems making friends and I will never forget them. Rome is the best city to stay for Uni! I fell in love
Cultural and academic experience
April 28, 2022by: Nicholas Modlin - United StatesI spent two years living in Rome, learning about the city, and experiencing it (largely with a running group) and loved it immensely! John Cabot University was fantastic in facilitating this experience and offering new opportunities. Through the university, I was introduced to community members who I could explore the area with and live the most interesting parts of Rome. Of course, this is in addition to a well-experienced and professional faculty. I went through the business program at John Cabot and learned everything and more than what I was hoping from a selection of professionals with experience in international law, startups, and large corporations. The university is very well connected and utilizes their resources to create a worthwhile experience.
Living in Rome!
April 27, 2022by: Natalia Medero - MexicoMy experience in John Cabot University has been fully enriching. I’ve met the brightest art history professors that had inspired me and reinforced my passion for my major. Equally important, I’ve gained independence skills while living abroad and have met a nice friend group from my home country and others.
Don’t think twice, just go for it!
January 26, 2022by: Mary Curran - United StatesI was planning to finish my degree at UCLA when I learned about the Italian Studies program at JCU. After doing some research and contacting alumni, I decided that JCU would be a better fit for my future goals. I am in my second semester and can’t speak highly enough about the program. The faculty and staff have exceeded my expectations and I continue to be impressed at what this university has to offer. If you’re debating on where you should go to finish your degree, search no more. The experience you will have during your time in Rome is unparalleled. You will not only receive an exceptional education, you will have life changing experiences in the Eternal City.
