If you are a minority or woman accounting major, there are many scholarships available. If you are still an undergraduate student, even more are available. Remember to pursue all the degrees you desire before obtaining that 1st bachleor's degree. Once you get it, Pell grants and other type of money available for being low income stop when you attend graduate school. It is hard getting money in graduate school when you don't know where to look. And if you were clueless to the money while in undergraduate school, the foundations and agencies tend to believe you can just survive off loan money which has to be repaid. That is the key word "repaid".
Anyway, I am listing some names of associations you can Google to find more information on scholarships:
-National Association of Women Accountants
-American Society of Women Accountants
-Educational Foundation for Women in Accounting
-The Association of Certified Fraud Examiners
-John L. Carey Scholarship
