Accounting Advisory Council Scholarship

Must be accepted to the MS of Accounting program at UB. Must be in good academic standing. Preference given to students from underrepresented* communities.

Financial need is considered for eligibility of this opportunity. Applicants should file an annual FAFSA. Students ineligible to file a FAFSA may demonstrate financial need on the General Application by selecting “Yes” to the Financial Hardship question and providing a brief summary of their circumstances (if “No,” leave blank).

This fellowship is based upon a full year of academic study. The payments will be disbursed in equal halves between the fall and spring semesters.

*For purposes of this opportunity, the term underrepresented is intended to refer to individuals who have been historically underrepresented in a particular field of study, profession, or educational pathway based on factors such as socioeconomic background (e.g., Pell eligibility), first-generation college status, geographic origin, educational access, AmeriCorps alumni status, veteran status, or other unprotected characteristics. This term does not establish preference based on race, sex, ethnicity, or any other protected classification under applicable federal or state law.
