Can I join any college to take CPT exam to become a CA after class 12?

<p>No, enrolling to any college merely to sit for the Common Proficiency Test (CPT) is not sufficient to become a chartered accountant in India. To take the CPT, you must, however, be enrolled in a certain course approved by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI).</p><p>Following Class 12, there are two primary ways to enrol in the CA course:</p><ul><li>The foundation course serves as the customary entry point for graduates of Class 12. After graduating from Class 12, you can immediately register for the Foundation Course.</li><li>Or you can register straight for the Intermediate Course (IPC) without first completing the Foundation Course if you received at least 50% in the aggregate and 60% in mathematics in Class 12.</li><li>For students who completed Class 10, CPT served as an earlier entry point before being superseded by Foundation Course in July 2016. After passing Class 12 and the CPT, students were eligible to sign up for the Foundation Course.</li></ul><p>Consequently, in order to move forward with becoming a CA, you must either register directly for the Intermediate Course or, depending on your Class 12 results, enrol in the Foundation Course, as CPT is no longer available. ICAI-recognized universities and institutes offer both the Foundation Course and the Intermediate Course.</p>
