Do you want to help students reach their CPA career goals without the stress of paying for an added year of school? Encourage the CPAs of the future to apply for the Michigan Accountancy Foundation’s (MAF) Fifth/Graduate Year Scholarship.
As you know, a fifth year of education is required for CPA licensure. With yearly tuition increases and a flagging economy, financing that fifth year can be difficult. Since 2003, the MAF Scholarship has assisted 66 students with their final year of tuition bills.
The MAF Scholarship has made a profound difference to students such as Mersiha Cunmulaj, a 2006 scholarship recipient. “Before being awarded this scholarship, I wasn’t exactly sure how I was going to receive funds to attend graduate school,” Cunmulaj stated. “I am very humbled and appreciative.”
You can make a difference today for the CPAs of tomorrow. The application deadline is January 31, 2007. Visit the application criteria and form web page for scholarship requirements. For more information, please contact Michelle DiDomenico at 248.267.3714 or e-mail.
