Highlight the diversified skills of the CPA designation

  • Erica Pimentel
As someone who was both a practitioner and was involved in CPA education prior to beginning my Ph.D., the decision to go back to school full-time was not an easy one. However, this scholarship has been a tremendous source of encouragement. Awards like this one recognize the value that CPAs bring to both the classroom and to scholarly research, and will motivate other CPAs to make the leap to academia.

Financial assistance scholarships are helpful and appreciated

  • Nancy Michaud

Becoming a CPA is a process that requires a lot of time, energy and money. I notice that more and more students have parental responsibilities and must balance work, family and studies to reach their goal. The scholarships awarded by the CPA Foundation are a great way to show them that we encourage them to continue their projects. I am convinced that these future CPAs will make us proud later because we helped them during their academic careers.
