Description

In 1993, GFOA's Executive Board voted to create the Minorities in Government Finance Scholarship to recognize and encourage outstanding minority students enrolled in a course of study preparing for a career in state or local government finance. Applicants must be graduate or upper level undergraduate students in Public administration, (governmental) accounting, finance, political science, economics, or business administration (with specific focus on government or nonprofit management). Two letters of recommendation from someone who can speak to the applicant's commitment to the public sector must be submitted. There is no employment requirement. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Government Finance Officers Association for more information.
