I agree with Sunshine: Community colleges are typically cheaper and provide a better education than for-profit schools like Devry and ITT.
However, to land a good job in accounting, you need at least a four year degree from a college that has been accredited in accounting. The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) has a list of accredited schools of business, as well as a list of accredited accounting programs here: http://www.aacsb.edu/accreditation/accreditedmembers.asp
No – go to community college – it’s cheaper and more reputable.
