CPA or CPP
Hey, quick question
Is it worth it to do CPA or do CPP and transfer to a uni for final year or two more years?
I'm thinking of doing CPA and transferring to masters straight but I'm not sure if CPA is worth doing

After lots of researching CPA has more university transfer options. Which means that after completing CPA program you have more university choices. If in doubt then just check the pathway options on both of them. Then make your decision. I posted the links to the transfer opportunities for both programs.
CPP on the other hand doesn’t offer transfer credits to a lot of universities as CPA. But if your someone that doesn’t care about university and wants to get an education then choose CPP. Much shorter from CPA 3 years to CPP 2 years.

TLDR: If you want to enter university with your Seneca transfer credits then choose CPA. Otherwise choose CPP
For me personally I choose CPA because I want to do a college bridging which means that after completing CPA 3 years I can decide if I really need to upgrade my credentials to a university degree.
If the message is not clear feel free to ask more questions.
Thank youu
Can you explain more on the "college bridging", what's that?
And is it possible to transfer to masters after doing CPA?
College bridging is a term used to describe the college to university transfer pathway. It’s just the same meaning as college to university transfer. To bridge I want to use the Seneca College diploma to bridge (aka transfer) to university to earn a degree. Basically I am using CPA to enter university.
Masters degree require bachelor’s degree as a prerequisite. Basically you transfer to a university then complete it to get your bachelor’s degree. After completing your bachelor’s degree you apply for masters degree at any university.
Ohhh I see
What semester are you in CPA?
If you've started coop, how's it?
Okayyy thank you
I'd just stay in CPA and look for pathway options
Oh I am actually a new student starting semester 1 in fall 2024. But I done a lot of research to get these answers I provided. Unsure about COOP because I am a new student unfortunately.
It's fine, thanks for the information
Pretty sure to do a masters you need a bachelor from university
is the bachelor from seneca enough for a master? or it must be in uni
Only pathway is https://www.senecapolytechnic.ca/programs/bycredential/masters.html otherwise it has to be from uni. Basically if there’s no pathway chances are really low that you will be accepted into a masters program
