Three graduates of Foundation University hurdled the Certified Public Accountant licensure examination given May 15.
Mae Bantug, Melody Hope Versano, and Jimmy Basi brought honors to the University, after FU Business Administration Dean Dr. Julhusin Jalisan announced a 100 percent passing average, in contrast to the national passing average of 40.5 percent.
Jalisan said they were hoping to have one of the new CPAs land in the Top 10. “We just have to continue with the search and we also have to continue believing,” he said.
Bantug and Versano graduated October 2010 while Basi graduated in March 2010.
In March 2011, a total of 19 graduated
from the Accountancy program. Thirteen of them are now in Manila attending review classes for the CPA board examination in October.
Accountancy is one of seven degree programs in the College of Business Administration. (FU PR)
