The Department of Accounting awards scholarships
to outstanding undergraduate and graduate students based on academic
excellence and financial need. Freshmen may apply for the Donald J. Leitch
Memorial and the Accounting Department Scholarships. Many other college
and university scholarships and other types of financial assistance are
also available. The Department awards very attractive and competitive scholarship
packages to high school seniors who exhibit high potential for success
in the accounting profession. It is extremely important for freshmen students
to apply for all possible scholarship programs because many are renewable
only if they are awarded in the freshman year.
Substantial amounts of scholarship awards are also made available to
upperclassmen. Students may apply for awards through the Accounting Department,
Cornman, Trevathan, and Allbritten-Linn Scholarship programs. Graduate
students receive scholarships through the Accounting Department program.
