About the Pilot Program
The Society of Actuaries (SOA) will now offer candidates currently residing in India or Pakistan the opportunity to register for exams at a further discounted rate through the “Global Access” pilot program, through December 2024. This pilot program is designed to reduce geographic-related financial barriers to the associate-level pathway, as well as encourage the expansion of the actuarial profession. All candidates and members living in these countries already qualify for an international discount on ASA modules. The pilot discount for India and Pakistan will be 50% off all ASA components in the first two Micro-credentials and 30% off the final Micro-credential. Discounts are not available for VEEs.
Key Details of the Pilot Program:
- Special Pricing: The SOA exam pricing under the Global Access pilot program, for India and Pakistan, has been significantly discounted to account for the GDP in your region.
- Availability: The new pricing will be available for exams taking place in January 2024 through December 2024. Candidates must register at soa.org/globalaccess for pilot pricing to apply.
- Evaluation: The pilot program will be evaluated throughout 2024 based on exam registration patterns and candidate feedback.
This is an excellent opportunity for you to take a step towards realizing your actuarial aspirations and contributing to the growing actuarial community.
