I think you are mistaken, usually to start ACA you need a upper second degree (but some medium/smaller firms in the UK will allow you with a lower second). But to start AAT you can do so after A Levels.

But a degree is so much better than AAT, if you comparing like for like, and with a good degree you can get up to 8 excemptions from ACA (i only got 7). And a degree is a better foundation for any career, compared to AAT which is very accountancy/audit/finance based.

Not too sure about the standard of Sunway when it comes to ACA but i have seen students from Malaysia in London studying for their final 3 papers, sent by their respective firms of course, which in turn implies Sunway has the lack of tutors who can teach the case study papers or the pass rates are awful.
