student scholars
We have given out over $4 million dollars to over 2000 students majoring in accounting at partnering Florida universities. Many of our scholars have gone on to great successes. We are pleased to have engagement and the support with many, through their donated time and financial gifts.
Katelyn Wonsock
2017 Scholar
Florida State University
“I would absolutely say the scholarship I received from the FICPA aided me and my studies greatly. As someone who was able to come out of undergrad and graduate school debt-free as I worked throughout my college career, the scholarship relieved the financial burden that comes with college. I received the FICPA scholarship during graduate school, where I was under a lot of pressure from not only my full course load, but also from working part time at FSU and at a CPA firm on top of studying for my CPA exams! Knowing that I had this scholarship allowed me to take time off from working when needed, which allowed me to score exceptionally well in my coursework as well as on the CPA exams.”
