    Accounting Degree
    I am very interested in becoming an accountant. I have just started taking accounting classes at my community college. I do not want to transfer to a university.

    What college is best in Michigan for this?
    How can I be successful is this business?
    And what is some good advice I should take with me?


    Thank you.

    You may need to research the reputation of your local educational institutions

    Accounting is a profession and requires professional training and accreditation if you are going to conduct an accounting business. I don't know the standards of a community college in your region but the likelihood is they can only conduct introductary or fundamental training which may not lead to professional accreditation or may only allow accreditation by a lesser institute

    I would suggest you complete the course you have started, since dilligence is well respected in accounting and then undertake a university course to obtain professional acceditation. Remember that in accounting integrity is your most important attribute
