The South Carolina Association of CPAs Educational Fund Trustees are proud to announce it has awarded $64,500 to 43 exceptional students who plan to pursue careers in accounting. The scholarship recipients represent 16 South Carolina colleges and universities.

The scholarships are awarded to students attending South Carolina schools who are rising juniors or seniors majoring in accounting or who are master’s degree students at a South Carolina college or university.
