Deloitte Foundation Accounting Scholars Program
The Deloitte Foundation is a US nonprofit accelerating equity, innovation, and excellence in education. It supports programs that work in parallel with Deloitte's MADE (Making Accounting Diverse and Equitable) commitment. Over the next several years, the Deloitte Foundation expects to fund $25 million in scholarships for students, including students interested in pursuing a fifth-year master’s degree in accounting, master of tax or master of accounting with a concentration in audit, advisory, or tax through the Deloitte Foundation Accounting Scholars Program. In the spirit of supporting a diverse student population and to strengthen the pipeline of diverse talent entering the CPA profession, the Deloitte Foundation and participating universities will provide the Deloitte Foundation Accounting Scholars a scholarship that covers 100% of their tuition (excluding books and living expenses) for the 2024–2025 academic year.
