Question
Hi, I'm in grade 7, but I still want to get ahead to know what I'm doing soon. So I was wondering, I plan on getting a hockey scholarship to an American university, is there a good chance of that happening? And if I want to become a Money Manager, and Major in accounting, what are the best schools for accounting? Thank you
Bye

Answer
There are a lot of very good schools that offer accounting and hockey, but you need to decide some other things before you start looking at them.  If I were you, I would work really hard in your classes to do well and improve your hockey as best you can.  When you are in grade 9 you can start researching schools on the internet that offer what interests you in addition to accounting and hockey.  Some things I would suggest you consider:  location, size,
academic challenge, types of students, etc.  These are all important things to think about in making a good college selection.
