Well I'm a second year university student and i'll graduate with a BBA degree. Right now i am deciding between finance and accounting major. Basically, if i choose finance, most likely i will add a statistics major. If i choose accounting, i don't get the chance to complete my stats major. But from what i have heard, accounting background is really good for people aiming at the finance industry?
I'd like to hear from your opinions. Thank you!
Accounting helps because a lot of job descriptions for entry level positions that are supposedly for finance will have a requirement that you took so many hours of accounting (15 credits or so) else they ignore your application. So you don't necessarily need to major or minor in it, just make sure you take a good handful of courses in it for elective purposes.
My current debt load from previous education is 34K federal debt and 16K private loan debt. Currently I have 28K in my savings account (investments included). As I fill out the FAFSA and apply for aid would it be better to put my savings into paying off some of my debt first? Would having less in savings make it more likely a grad. school will offer me more grant money?
Loans have an aggregate amount u can owe.. After that, u can't borrow anymore.. I would take my 28K and pay off what I can.. The interest on the 28K isn't nearly as much as the interest on a student loan.. Rather than taking out a new loan, why don't u use ur 28K for school and living cost.. Grad students don't get federal grants so how much u have won't matter.
I want to get my High School Diploma or GED, afterwards I want to pursue my education in Accounting.
Can you tell me how I can accomplish all this using my benefits from Cherokee Nation?
I know that I had to get my college education the old fashioned way…by paying for it myself. My husband payed for it quarter by quarter, I went to school and I worked at the same time yo help. It wasn't easy, but when you want something bad enough, you find a way to do it. There were no extra benefits for me…I did it on my own. I am proud of that…
I think you must get your GED first…then move on to the next step.
hmm if i do average on gmat n i have like a 3.30 gpa what kind of grad school for accounting can i get into?
from UNLV
Depends what undergrad you're starting out from. 3.30 means different things at different universities.
btw, I completely disagree with the poster above me.

(1-4 with 1 being the most important and 4 being the least important, and explain why the organization is or is not seen as important)
Delta Sigma Pi
Student Alumni Association
Accounting Society
Finance Society
Is Delta Sigma Pi a social fraternity or honors society? If it’s an honors society I would rank it first. But to be honest with you the ranking of the organization is not that important. What is most important is how you were involved in the org. Did you have any leadership roles in any of the organizations?
