CFA is a professional program offered to investment and financial professionals, yeah definitely u can take the exam. To become a CFA charter holder u need to take its three stage and mostly have a four year work experience, its also seen as an equivalent of a master degree e.g UK. Definitely u can as a computer science graduate.

CFA holder? wish i am, maybe sometimes in the future. Just got background in finance, think can be concluded in two years if u dont hv to resit any stage tho nt too sure. Well u shud have strong finance background and if nt should be ready to work hard and be dedicated. Are you looking to work in an investment bank, PFAs or insurance companies if not wud advice you go for ACCA.
