<p>Hello all!</p>
<p>What are the best universities to get an accounting degree from and then eventually go for my CPA?</p>

<p>The cheapest, AACSB accredited school that the big 4 recruits at. That is all the criteria that matters.</p>

<p>Nice! thanks Moss 
It has some of the schoolls I’m looking a, with my hold ups:</p>
<p>UPenn – Ivey League, would love to have a degree from there
Ohio State - my home state would love to move bck and study there
U of Ill Urbana - Heard it’s a great school for acct
UT Austin - it’s in texas, which is a great state to raise a family, I’d rather move there when I’m ready to have kids and start a family, but as a top acct school, it’s worth looking into
Notre Dame – have dreamed of going here! I hear it’s a top liberal arts school, is selective, but is small enough to feel homey. Plus, I would like nothing more than to be around an intellectual community the likes of it
Indiana U - I might go to med school after getting my acct degree, but I’m not sure yet, however, Indiana U has a great medical program, but they accept most state residents, 
so it could be a plus if I decide to go to med school </p>
<p>what do you know about UCF? that’s the nearest college to me, but just because it’s so close doesn’t mean I have to go there…my sister got an internship at Grant Thronton while in her MACC program, and they have a Meet the Firms every year, they’re always looking for strong accting students…still, I don’t like the intellectual community there, it’s definitely wanting…from my experience there thoughts?</p>
<p>If you don’t like the intellectual community at UCF, you will definitely hate the “intellectual” community on this board.</p>
<p>Also…medical school? That came outta nowhere. It seems like you need to figure out what you want to do first.</p>
<p>i wanted to go to medical school, then i got high</p>
<p>i wanted to be a cpa, then i got high</p>
<p>i wanted to go into work, then i got high</p>
<p>^Thanks Moss, now I have that song stuck in my head…then I got high.</p>
