<p>I want to be a business major and became an accountant. Are there any volunteering jobs that the colleges look at in particular, especially with this major? I was thinking of just volunteering at the hospital, but everyone does that...so i don't know. I am a junior in high school and have the whole summer free.</p>
<p>Also, if I do decide to volunteer at a hospital, does the popularity of the hospital matter?</p>
<p>VITA is pretty common.</p>
<p>What is VITA?</p>
<p>VITA = Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program</p>
<p>You file basic income tax returns for lower income individuals. It’s a service to your local community and it helps to familiarize you with common tax forms. I suggest it.</p>
<p>Oh, I am only a high school junior though.</p>
<p>just enjoy your summer while you still can</p>
<p>Yes, VITA! If you plan to go into Accounting you should join VITA during your college years. Plus, you’ll be certified by the IRS to prepare tax returns for low income tax payers.
Definitely join some Accounting societies and Business organizations in college too.</p>
