Chelsea’s Answer

You can major in accounting, where you would attend college for 4 years and earn an accounting undergraduate degree. You can then decide whether you want to go to graduate school for accounting/finance, to earn your 150 credits needed in order to sit for the CPA exam.

Franchesca’s Answer

A Bachelor of Science in Accounting is definitely enough! However, be mindful that if you want to become a CPA, there is a 150 credit requirement to sit for the exam. You can attain those 150 credits in several ways, by taking more undergraduate credits or pursuing a Master of Accountancy. How you do it, is up to you.

Good luck!
