he Accounting Education Foundation of the Texas Society of CPAs is pleased to announce that we are accepting scholarship applications for the 2022-23 academic year.  Last year, the Foundation awarded $129,500 in scholarships to students intending to earn the CPA credential in Texas.  This year the Foundation has planned to award 5 additional scholarships of $1,000 each to community college students.  Your school is allowed a maximum of two applications.  We ask that you follow these steps in connection with this scholarship program:

 

1. Distribute the application link: https://txcpa.secure-platform.com:443/a to the two students eligible to apply for the scholarship.  Students must complete and submit the application online.

 

2. Prior to the deadline, a list of applicants from your university will be sent and the department chair will be asked to confirm the nominations.

 

3. Applicants must submit electronically a current transcript during the application process. The selection committee will not consider an application unless a transcript has been received.  If the applicant has attended more than one university, the cumulative college transcript should show grades and credit received from all previous schools.  If the transcript does not show a previous record, then a separate transcript (or transcripts) will be required.

 

4. Applicants must submit evidence that an Application of Intent to take the CPA Exam has been filed with the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy.  The verification emailed received from the Board can be uploaded during the application process.

           

The deadline for receiving applications and all supporting documents is Friday, October 21, 2022.  Awards will be made during the fall semester and will be sent to the school for disbursement to the student.  We appreciate your efforts in making this scholarship program a success and look forward to receiving applications from your students.
