Drowning

Recently I graduated with my bachelors degree in accounting. I got an internship about an hour where I live. Everything was going great, but I was told if I wanted to continue the position come the fall I would need a Masters and be able to sit for the CPA exam. This is an entry position offering $50,000 a year but it requires a masters degree. I don’t know what to do. My scholarships expired, and I can’t afford to go back to school and drive two hours a day for a position that pays slightly above a labor job that I could get tomorrow. I don’t know what to do. I’m just hoping for something to end/change at this point. How will this generation ever survive without affordable housing and proper pay? I just don’t know what to do and feel hopeless.
