I am a second-career nursing student and I am a CPA. I am wondering if I should keep paying for my CPA license. Are there nursing positions that I would really need a license for? I understand that there are jobs where a background as a CPA would be helpful, but I'm just doubtful that I will really need the license. I do not plan to ever work for an accounting firm or open my own practice. It's $300 per year, so not a trivial amount of money.
Anyone out there with some experience on this topic?
I agree with the keep the license idea. But if there is a way of reclaiming it without much trouble, don't throw away the hard earned cash. I plan going back to finish my accounting degree that I started on in my country of origin. That will be after my BSN.
