Double minor

[moho23]

The accounting course load for a BLS minor in accounting is nothing like that of the accounting course demands that a BA in Accounting has.  If your goal is to be an accountant then the BA in Accounting or a BABA with Accounting, not a BLS with accounting. The two minors you're looking at are at opposite ends of the spectrum professionally from each other - what is your goal with the degree? One degree that meets your goal is always better than two degrees that don't.

I am in my final term of BLS minor in education. In Texas, this would allow me to sit for the state teacher's examination and start teaching right away with a salary. Being a public teacher has been my goal I have been working towards for two years. I will be finished with BLS minor in education in a matter of weeks. 
Now that the time has come, my spouse extremely worried due to the uptick in violence in Houston schools. My spouse is funding my education and said they would continue to fund it if I decided to choose a different path for safety reasons. Accounting is something I've always been interested in. There are many jobs available in my area. I could start right away. After further research Im sure I need the BA in Accounting to qualify for the Texas CPA exam.

Is it better to have two BLS minors in unrelated fields such as Bachelors of liberal studies with a minor in education and accounting or would it be better to do something like BA in accounting and BLS in education? I have already spoken to my student advisor and both of things are possible.

What's your end goal? These 2 fields aren't related. You can't complete a BA then a BLS at UMPI. You could complete the BA in Accounting and the Educational Studies Minor. This particular minor is very long. Many students change minors because it takes multiple sessions and the professor is particularly anal.

ETA: I completed my BLS first. I did 3 minors, but they are all related so they make sense career wise.

I was doing bls in education at umpi so i could sit for Texas teacher's exam. I have just a couple of classes left to complete. Due to the increased violence in schools in my area, I have decided not to sit for the exam and start teaching. Accounting is something I'm interested in and has high job availability in my area. I've decided to finish this term out and move on to BA in accounting.
