Undergraduate Scholarships
College is expensive. If you are a declared accounting major, PICPA can help you with your college financial needs.
This year, PICPA granted multi-year scholarships to 29 students receiving a total of $103,000. Scholarship amounts range from $1,000 to $15,000 and many can be renewed annually until the completion of a recipient's degree, provided each student pursues a full-time accounting degree, maintains a 3.0 or above GPA, and satisfies any other renewal requirements established by the PICPA.
Who can apply
-
Candidates should be full-time undergraduate students majoring in accounting at a Pennsylvania college or university and have completed a minimum of 36 credit hours. Students are required to have a GPA of 3.0 or higher.
