Worth knowing

About this scholarship

One $2,000 award from the CPA Education Foundation for a Grade 12 Alberta student who identifies as a girl or woman, judged on good character and leadership rather than marks. You submit a letter or a two to three minute video on what being an empowered young woman means to you, your post-secondary acceptance letter, and one letter of support that speaks to your character and any obstacles you have had to get past. Preference goes to students interested in the CPA designation.
