I think in order to be an actuary, you have to take the same courses as an accounting major. I would ask your math professor because they have all the details on this. Whereas accounting is more money related, actuaries deal with statistics.
I.E. an actuary determines where to place hotels, the premiums for car insurance etc. Accountants deal with bills.
After a thirty year career, an accountant should be making 110k while an actuary is making 350k.
However, with an accountant, you only have to take the CPA exam. To be an actuary, I think you take five exams throughout your career. Your math professor would know this better than me. I researched this like three years ago.
