InVEST Scholarships Up for Grabs
Now is the time to rally your students for scholarship preparation.

Tuition costs are climbing, but students still have to pay for college somehow. In many cases, students’ only hope for paying higher education costs is with scholarships, which is why they should take advantage of InVEST awards.

Each spring, InVEST awards scholarships to students participating in a high school or community college InVEST class with plans to pursue higher education with an emphasis in insurance, risk management, actuarial science or business.
Some InVEST students are often ready to leap right into the insurance industry and there is also a scholarship opportunity for these classroom-to-career individuals. InVEST graduates who choose to get an insurance license or take other insurance credentials can apply for a scholarship to assist with licensing courses, IIA courses, CIC or ACSR.

Scholarship submissions are due on April 10, 2009. For more information and to download an application, visit www.investprogram.org and click on “scholarships.” For questions, contact Amber Williamson at 800-221-7917; amber.williamson@iiaba.net.

InVEST, a 501 (c)(3) educational trust, is dedicated to improving insurance literacy and attracting new talent to the industry.
