Eligibility Requirements

To apply, students must meet the eligibility requirements listed below, submit the online application, and send in the required attachments by June 15. Please note, students should not send official transcripts prior to the Spring semester class grades being posted; any transcript received which does not include the most recent Spring semester grades will not be considered for a scholarship!

 

To be eligible for an MSA Scholarship, applicants must:

 

01 — Be a Maryland Resident enrolled in an accredited Maryland University, College, or Community College

02 — Be enrolled in a program with a major in accounting leading to a degree or certificate.

03 — Have successfully completed Accounting Principles I and II, with a grade of "B" or better.

04 — Maintain a grade point average of 3.0 or higher in both accounting and overall.

05 — Attend a special recognition ceremony.

Scholarships are available to both full-time and part-time students.

Full-time students may receive up to $2,000 per academic year while part-time students are eligible for up to $1,000 per academic year (not to exceed $8000.00 per recipient).

Applicants who are selected will receive one-half of the scholarship each semester. The second installment is dependent on the recipient submitting a semester transcript which shows they have maintained the required academic performance.

The deadline to apply for a scholarship is June 15 each year.
