Requirements for CFA Financial Support Scholarship

In order to protect the integrity of the Program, the following Official Rules (“Rules”) shall bind all participants in the Program:

• Scholarship Candidates may be either new or existing candidates in the CFA Program.
• There is no minimum or maximum income or asset level for Scholarship Candidates.
• Candidates are ineligible if their current employer provides any financial assistance for participation in the CFA Program.
• Candidates can only receive one Access Scholarship per calendar year.
• Further, a Candidate may only receive one scholarship per exam, so if a candidate applies for both an Access and an Awareness Scholarship, and receives an award, the remaining application will be void.

Selection Process

Selection Criteria: 

• Applications will be reviewed by CFA Institute and/or a local CFA Institute Member Society in the Scholarship Candidate’s geographic area.
• While financial need will be strongly considered, awards may be made based on a combination of factors, including financial need; the academic, professional or other accomplishments of the candidate; obstacles overcome by the candidate; contributions to the local community; the candidate’s interest in pursuing the CFA charter; and other personal characteristics that indicate the individual is a strong candidate to receive an Access Scholarship and become a CFA charter holder.
