Scholarship Application

Web Based Form: Please import or print out a copy for your signature and bring to BA 418 with your transcripts

(Type or print very clearly in ink.)

The Scholarship Committee in the Area of Accounting considers scholarship applications during the spring semester each year. To be considered for a scholarship, you must submit an  APPLICATION and TRANSCRIPTS from all colleges and universities attended, including Texas Tech; unofficial transcripts are acceptable. Failure to submit TRANSCRIPTS will disqualify your application. The submission    DEADLINE is January 25, 2008.

The Scholarship Committee awards scholarship monies on the basis of performance and potential, not on the basis of financial need. The committee considers an applicant’s academic record as primary evidence of performance and potential; secondary evidence includes admission test scores, honors received, work experience, etc.

The Director of Accounting Programs will notify successful applicants by letter in February or early March 2008. Unsuccessful applicants will not be notified. Students receiving scholarships will be expected to attend the Accounting Awards Banquet on April 24 where the department of accounting will recognize both the recipients and donors of accounting scholarships.

Scholarship monies will be paid in the following academic year, conditional on the awardee continuing in good standing as an accounting major at Texas Tech University.
