Anyway I can take over my father's CA firm without actually having a CA certification?

I know this sounds weird, but I am about to graduate from HS and my plan was to just go another state or country for college, but I haven't gotten any nice acceptances so the chances of this happening looks bleak. Now, if I were to stay in my city and attend a college here (which looks like it) is there any chance I can take the CA firm forward without a CA certification? I don't plan on giving on pursuing CA, but I do plan for a CFA. I mean, also what's better than to work for yourself? So is there anyway?
