Where to put passed CFA level 1 on resume

I am a science major and passed the CFA level 1 exam my senior year of school to help me get in the door at a couple of firms. Initially I was set on taking the level 2 and 3, but after some industry experience, realized the time benefit was not worth it for me.

I still want to put Passed CFA Level 1 on my resume but not sure where it fits. I originally had CFA level 2 Candidate (when I was one) right below my academic credentials.

Would appreciate any advice—thank you in advance.
