How much years of collage need to become a accountant?

Accountant is a job title. If your Uncle Bob hires you to keep the books for his house painting business, guess what, you're an accountant. Even if you're still in High School. However, in order to be a CPA (Certified Public Accountant), you have to be certified by the state. Requirements vary, but generally include a minimum of a Bachelor's degree plus an additional year of study (5 years total), plus on-the-job experience, plus passing a special exam. Certain accounting tasks can only legally be done by a CPA (however, a business can have non-licensed accountants who take care of the day-to-day work and bring in a CPA as an outside contractor on a periodic basis to conduct audits and the like).
