Are there any states where the education requirement for CPA is less than specifically a Bachelor's degree IN ACCOUNTING???
Is there any experiential substitution for the degree anywhere?

I think all states require the equivalent of a college degree and none would allow an "experiential" CPA to practice

The bachelor's doesn't have to be in accounting, but there do have to be a certain number of approved-content accounting hours in the degree obtained, and it must be from an accredited program.
Some might. Go to

click on exams, then CPA Exam, then browse the states, which will have links to the state boards of accountancy, who have eligibility requirements details. I seem to recall once finding a PDF that had all the states laid out in one place, but I am not sure where I found that. Google would probably turn something like that up :)
