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.

Apply through the online form on the CPA Education Foundation site, one form per award. CPA has not published the 2027 dates yet. May 1 has been the deadline in recent years, so confirm with cpaef@cpaalberta.ca before you count on it.
