About

OUR GOAL

Accounting Student Success was developed to be a free one stop resource for accounting students in their journey through college.  After graduating with both Bachelors and Masters degrees in Accounting, I realized that throughout my own journey there have been times when I had plenty of questions.  It can be tough if you are deciding to begin the steps to achieving your own degree in business and do not have a family member or friend who has been through the ropes.

This website is designed to give you these tools and more in order to understand accounting and pick the resources that will help you the most in achieving your degree and beginning your career.  We also believe that Financial Literacy is a skill that everyone should learn, whether you are an accounting student or not.  The current education system does not spend time teaching students how to become better financially literate which is what our country currently needs right now.


If you have any suggestions to what our content should include, or have questions that can be included in our next tutorial, feel free to send us an email at accstudentsuccess@gmail.com.
