I will be entering my last semester of college starting in May and will graduate in August. I will be 33 years old when I graduate with my Bachelor's Degree and am trying to decide if I am going to keep going to get enough credits for my CPA. I am figuring that it will take me an additional two years, which puts me at 35...is that too late?

I will be 30 when I graduate with my Bachelor's degree. That still gives me lots of time to work and to take further study in the future (for a Master's or even PhD).
35 is not too late either, if you think the CPA is worth doing then my advice is to go for it!

I am pretty sure that I will keep at it, considering my workplace will pay for my further education. Why wouldn't I right? Good luck to you!

No way, you're totally young. I went to college for two years and then took 5 years "off" then went back and finally graduated in 2004. I'm 29 right now and also thinking of getting a cpa. I do finance right now and want a little change. Was it Thoreau or Emerson who said: "Youth is wasted on the young"?
