<p>You need to find out if your mom wants Georgia Tech because it is a cheap in-state option instead of the expensive out-of-state-and-private BC, or if she wants engineering anywhere instead of accounting anywhere.</p>
<p>Geeze. All the kids I know who studied accounting-type subjects (not all were CPA-track students) walked straight out of college and into decent jobs. There is no reason to believe that you wouldn’t too, provided you make the effort to get some work/internship experience along the way while you are in college.</p>
