I don't know what the degree was exactly. All I know is he got them the same day. I see others have posted similar.

I have two terms left in accounting and its only:

24 credit hours more for a B.S. in Finance
40 credit hours more for a B.S. in Management and Leadership & B.S. in Human Resource Management
32 credit hours more for a B.S. in Marketing & B.S. in Advertising Management

or

Would I be better off getting a masters instead?

Few things to note:

I only pay 30 percent of what others pay for undergrad classes.
If I go for a masters I will have to pay full. No more discount.

A B.S. in accounting is more valuable than any of those combinations. Plus in most states one has to have a M.S. degree to sit for the CPA exam now. There may be exceptions. I would purse a M.S. in accounting if you plan to be a CPA.

If you do not plan to be a CPA, a better combo would be Accounting/Math Accounting/Economics Accounting/IT (computer science) because these are combinations that you seldom see and will give you more job options.

For example, if you had Accounting/Math B.S. degrees you could decide you don't like accounting then become a math teacher (although in some states you will need a masters to be a teacher)

I would stay away from any type of degree in marketing.

In most states to become a licensed teacher you have to have teaching courses. Some require you to get courses towards your master's or a master's degree over time.

Get a grad degree. One thing you might be able to work in your favor is that if you wind up in your last semester only needing say... 2 more undergrad classes, you might be able to enroll in graduate classes at the undergrad rate. And, with your mind still fresh, you could probably still take on a full course load and thrive.
