Scholarship Advice

CFA Institute is the global, not-for-profit association of investment professionals that provides financial assistance for college or university students enrolling in the CFA Program by offering reduced tuition costs.

Eligible students who may apply for scholarships are those who are enrolling and registering for the first time. The applicants should be full-time college or university students in their final undergraduate year or  scheduled to receive a U.S. bachelor’s degree or comparable non-U.S. degree. Full- time or part-time graduate students are also encouraged to apply.

And because the scholarship is sponsored by professors, applicants must attend the same university where the sponsoring professor teaches. Student scholars pay only the cost of curriculum (December 2009 exam curriculum is US$220; June 2010 exam curriculum is US$225) plus any applicable taxes and import duties. CFA scholars also enjoy the waived enrollment fee and discounted exam registration fee.

The deadline for scholarship application is on February 1, 2010. Application form can be downloaded here. Interested applicants may also read the CFA Program Entrance Requirements.
