ACCA or SIM/UniSIM?

[ItchyPotato]

Hi guys, I'm currently in a dilemma choosing to study in the above 2.

Can anyone give me some advices between going to a Uni (Accounting) and ACCA?

I grad with a diploma in Accounting, therefore i will get 3 exemptions for ACCA, F1 to F3. For SIM, I will need to go for bridging in order to take the 2 years program

In terms of:

Time to complete: both should take 2 years if I clear everything in one shot
Cost: From what i roughly calculate, I will save some money by going to ACCA

Now the thing I am not so sure is the future prospect, I have googled but only find really old threads on this and might not be relevant anymore.

Will I be better off with a ACCA cert or graduating from SIM?

Do advice, thanks!

Degree definitely.. Acca is only a professional certificate. Would recommend unisim accountancy programme cos of its internship programme and its a recognised university by government.

Acca does save u money but in the terms of the difficulty level, i doubt clearing in one shot is possible (doesnt mean u cannot). Whats more with the sqp programme, i doubt acca will be that popular in Singapore as compared to past few years anymore.
