An earned terminal graduate degree (PhD, MD, JD, etc.) from an accredited institution.
Licensure in the United States as a Certified Public Accountant or Certified Financial Planner. Other similar certification programs may also qualify for this waiver at the discretion of UMass Dartmouth.
At least five (5) years of managerial/supervisory work experience.
