BA, BABA, BLS - Accounting, which one?

[lllunchbox]

@lllunchbox, Welcome to the board, that's a very short post with what you're looking for, but there's not much details on what you currently have as credit, commitments, study habits, and so on, we don't know your full situation to properly advise you which one would be better.  You really need to fill the template/last post addendum as the template asks you to provide your previous credits, the addendum asks for more detailed info. https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works 

To answer your question: Most people wanting to get into accounting would choose the BA Accounting or BABA Accounting... As it seems you're not really looking for the CPA or be fully immersed into accounting, the BLS with accounting minor would be sufficient (this is going by the very limited info in your post).  Here's a recent post you should review to see the differences: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid390713

Updated the post, thanks!

A BLS has the least "prestige". This doesn't mean it's bad. It's still a solid choice for many students. But it is a liberal studies degree and is little more than a check-the-box option for most. If that works for your needs, great! Otherwise, you'll probably want something else. It's usually the fastest option for most people, though.

The BABA Accounting will be faster for most people than the BA Accounting. The BABA is a business degree. This means slightly fewer accounting courses, more generic-type business ones. If you have no interest in becoming a CPA, this is probably what you want. The BABA part may also help facilitate promotions to a managerial position later.

The BA Accounting will have the most "prestige", but only if you're hopping to be a CPA. It has most, but possibly not all, of the subjects one needs to be allowed to sit for the CPA exam. It's also possible to add another minor to this degree to meet the 150+ credit requirement for CPA exams. If you're not going to be a CPA, you probably don't need this degree. But it really depends on what your career plans are.

I guess I just don't know how employers look at a BLS. But before I even saw the BLS, I had BABA in mind, I don't think the BA is something I want/need to do. BABA would open more doors for a more accounting-forward job I think, since it has more accounting classes.
