Okay, so I’m a senior in high school and my accounting teacher keeps saying that she thinks i would be very good at accounting.. I was thinking about becoming a CPA…Does anyone know what kinda of degree it takes to become a CPA and how many years of schooling?? Also, I was told they make good money? Is this true?

You have some time to decide, at least the school I went to didn’t require a declared major/concentration until your junior year in college. Ideally, you want an accounting degree, but whether you have to have completed your masters in order to take the CPA exam depends on your state. I provided two sources below where you can find out more. Also, once in college, I suggest getting an internship with a Big4 accounting firm is possible, it definitly opens doors for you. 🙂

Although it differs from state to state, generally at least a bachelors degree is required to sit for the test, although in some states a year or two beyond the bachelors is required,masters or a year less. IN va, where I am now a bachelors plus a few credit hours qualifies you to sit for the test the additional hours must be management I believe. You must check the qualifications for the state you live or plan to live/educate in. There may also be rules re having some work experience before the exam is taken,or CPA test is offered. The money and future job outlook are both good. I am returning to college in OH soon to finish my associates degree to transfer to NKU, for my accounting bachelors, and I plan my CPA test after that. A small number of colleges have an additional accreditation for business colleges that employers look for,so I advice you to ask some professors about this accreditation before going for accounting NKU, Northern Kentucky University does have this.

properly, in case you advise in college, then I advise English. come across a school with inventive writing classes. of direction, you do no longer could get a level in English. in my view I advise which you get a level you ought to use to get a occupation and write on the factor. maximum people who write do no longer make a living off of it. Have a returned-up plan. additionally, each and every author i’ve got heard communicate approximately their writing says that they study plenty. only study. study all kinds of books. have faith me, it will make you a extra helpful author. you will study from others a thank you to jot down, what works, and so on.
