The Accounting and Financial Women’s Alliance (AFWA) Undergraduate Scholarships are scholarship programs offered by the AFWA to support women who are pursuing undergraduate degrees in accounting or finance. The AFWA is a professional organization that is committed to advancing women in the accounting and finance professions.
The AFWA Undergraduate Scholarships are awarded based on academic achievement, financial need, and leadership. The scholarship provides up to $5,000 in financial assistance per year for up to four years of undergraduate study.
The application process for the AFWA Undergraduate Scholarships typically opens in the fall of each year, and the application deadline is usually in the spring. Applicants are required to apply form, academic transcripts, letters of recommendation, and a personal statement about their academic and personal achievements, as well as their future goals and aspirations in the accounting and finance professions.
The AFWA also offers other scholarship programs for women pursuing accounting and finance degrees, including the AFWA Graduate Scholarships and the AFWA LEAP Scholarships for non-traditional students.
