* BS in Accounting: Typically more focused on math and science-related courses, often requiring more credits in accounting and related business fields. This is generally the more common degree for accounting.
* BA in Accounting: Might include a broader liberal arts curriculum, allowing for more electives in areas outside of accounting and business.
Ultimately, the specific requirements and curriculum will vary from institution to institution, regardless of whether it's a BA or BS. Check the specific degree requirements at the university you're interested in. For most career paths in accounting, either degree is acceptable.
