Deloitte Foundation Accounting Scholars Program

Recipients of this award receive full tuition via scholarships awarded by both the Deloitte Foundation and Anderson School of Management. The scholarship program provides financial support to help fund scholarships for students interested in pursuing Anderson’s one-year master’s program in accounting and allows students to meet the 150-credit hour requirement for CPA eligibility. In the spirit of supporting a racially and ethnically diverse student population and to strengthen the pipeline of diverse talent entering the CPA profession, the scholarship program endeavors to consider applicants from underrepresented demographic groups.
